Photographer: Mark Mahin.
The large photo shows no less than 37 different orbs that look as if they were moving very quickly. Click below to see the 1050 by 1333 image at its full resolution.
The original photos can all be seen on this site by looking at my posts labeled "speeding air orb."
The photos were taken in New York City between September 2014 and March 2015, mostly in Grand Central Station. All the photos were taken indoors, and most were taken during months during which insects are not observed indoors in New York. No flying insects were observed by me during any of the days when these photos were taken. Quite a few of the photos show undulating or sharp-turn motion of a type that neither insects nor birds ever make.
If you look at the original photos, you will see that each of the anomalies was photographed well away from the edge of the photo. Given this fact and the fact that I have short hair, we cannot explain any of these photos as being a stray hair from the photographer, nor can any be explained as a photo of a camera strap.
We also cannot explain these orbs as dust, as all of them seem to be showing very rapid motion, but the average speed of an indoor dust particle is only 2 miles per hour, much too slow to produce the dramatic motion shown here.
