I was in my backyard taking photos of my dog at night and he started barking at something, so me being interested in this kind of stuff, took a photo and these orbs appeared. They both appear to have smiley faces in them. We have had two previous dogs die on this land and I was thinking maybe it was them. They seem to be around the same level of height as my alive dog. I showed my mum and she just kept rolling her eyes at me until I zoomed in on it and it was smiling!! hahahahah funniest moment of the day was looking at her face.

I have other photos of orbs if you want to scroll through the album, but here is the original photo and the zoomed in version of the smiley face.

Please don't be skeptical because I took the photo, this is what appeared, it just is what it is. I had nothing to do with it. Thanks.

If you look closer, it actually looks like a clown smiley face.....I feel that this orb is a presence of a relative that use to be a bit of a prankster who liked to joke around and have fun, who has now passed on. Do you know of anyone fitting that description?.....

Please let me know......I may ahve something more for you.

Spirit orbs don't exist.



It's not "dust with a face in it." The face is entirely in your mind, and is not real.



Pareidolia ( /pærɪˈdoʊliə/ pa-ri-DOE-lee-ə) is a psychological phenomenon involving a vague and random stimulus (often an image or sound) being perceived as significant. Common examples include seeing images of animals or faces in clouds, the man in the moon or the Moon rabbit, and hearing hidden messages on records played in reverse. The word comes from the Greek para- – "beside", "with", or "alongside"—meaning, in this context, something faulty or wrong (as in paraphasia, disordered speech) and eidōlon – "image"; the diminutive of eidos – "image", "form", "shape". Pareidolia is a type of apophenia.



Your brain is wired to find patterns. It's a survival mechanism. The patterns we most often think we see are faces. It takes just two dots and a line below them for us to "see" a face.



It's just a dust mote, or a water droplet in the air, that caught the flash of the camera. Nothing more.

I guess anything is possible, the Bell Curve proves that. But, since cameras only "see" visible light, it is hard to conceive of a situation where a spirit would reflect visible light or emit some that film or a digital sensor can detect. Have you ever studied the effects of lens flare? Dust reflections? or the making of "ghost like" images using long exposures? The link shows a very under exposed image with at least three out of focus dust partials, probably sitting on your lens surface

It doesn't look like an orb, that looks like dust or a bug.
