Sharp Right-Angle Turn by Speeding Orb

Photo date: January 16, 2015. Photographer: Mark Mahin.

The photo below was taken in Grand Central Station. This photo has been uploaded directly from the camera, and was not saved in any photo editor.Click here to download the photo (DSC06677) at its full resolution with its original EXIF metadata.

There are more than 20 mysterious orbs in this picture. Below is a closeup of the orb in front of the stairs.

What we see here seems to be the double-image type of effect that photographers call ghosting, which is caused when an object is moving much faster than the camera's shutter speed. Since the camera had an effective shutter speed of about 1/1000 of a second, an effect like this indicates an object moving very fast, much faster than the average speed of dust (only 2 miles an hour).

Notice the direction of motion. We do not see here motion in a single direction. We see what seems to be a sharp change in direction, a right-angle turn of about 90 degrees. Neither birds nor dust nor insects ever make that type of abrupt right-angle turn in a short space in midair.

Quite a few strange paranormal-looking things can be found by clicking on the link at top, downloading the full image, copying the image into a photo editor such as Windows Photo Viewer, and then using "zoom and pan" to inspect the details closeup. For example, near the famous circular information desk in the station, we see what looks like a group of strange paranormal faces.

Below is another closeup showing something that seems utterly paranormal. We see below an information window at Grand Central Station, one that is memorable because of its corner location and the semicircular desk in front of it. But rather than having its normal appearance (which I'll show at bottom), the semicircular desk now has the appearance of some strange head. Here is the photo cropped from the photo above (the desk area is slightly below the center of this photo). Note also the strange figures to the right of the desk.

Here is the actual appearance of this desk, which has no resemblance to the head-like appearance shown above.
