Orbs possible explanation

Ignoring sceptics posts i promised to do some scientific research into Orbs. I tried re-creating them using the most plausible explanation i can think of, dust particles in the air. Here are the results
Normal Picture
After spreading dust

I took a load of old dusters and shook them before i took the photo. The gap between both pics is about 10 seconds.

This proves some if not all orb pics are dust reflected off the flash. I do not discount all pics though and some are more likely to be real. This is just another explanation.

good stuff.
i find that kind of funny, have a friend who had a pic taken in her house with bucket loads of orbs, now I know she just doesnt use mr sheen.

Hey could still be paranormal!!! the real test is to get them WITHOUT a flash!!!

Seems lots of paranormal groups agree with the dust theory!

So in future maybe we should be more wary of Digital camera pics taken with a flash! If we can lets take pics WITHOUT a flash!!

did you know.....that 90% of dust particles is made up of dead skin cells?
so in a way..orbs are a little bit like dead people parts floating around.

Dond forget Flys and spiders give the same effect. Photos of Orbs hold no evidence in my book. But on Video camera when you see a real Orb pulsating and revolving. Even at that its a light phenomenom and there is no evidence to link it to ghosts.
