Moving Mysteries
The photo poster below is a grid of orb photos previously
published on this site. You can find all of the original photos by
looking at my posts labeled "speeding air orb" between March 28, 2018
and August 10, 2017. These photos all show orbs that appear to be
moving
very fast. Open the photo in a separate browser tab to see the poster
at its full resolution. Click here to see many other such grids, including 11 other grids of speeding orbs.
Bluer Than Tonight's Blue Moon

There was no fog, mist, rain or precipitation on this night.

Astounding Sky Letters
Photo date: March 29, 2018. Photographer: Mark Mahin.
I took the photo below while photographing the sky. Unlike at least 99.5% of the photos on this site, this photo was taken while there was some fog (I always note if a photo was taken while there was fog, mist or rain). The two circles might be explained as fog particles. But what about those weird X shapes? A double X in a letter is a shorthand notation meaning "kisses." The X shapes appeared nowhere else in dozens of photos I took on this night.

Another Orb Curvy Stripe
Photo date: March 28, 2018. Photographer: Mark Mahin.
The photo below shows a mysterious orb I photographed indoors. We see a strange curved stripe at the bottom of the orb.
This is the 12th time I have photographed a mysterious orb with a curved stripe at the top or bottom. This is one 26 recurring patterns I have seen in mysterious orbs I photograph. The grid below summarizes each of these patterns, and shows how often the patterns have occurred. You can see examples of all of these patterns by looking at this post.

Caught Turning
Photo date: March 16, 2018. Photographer: Mark Mahin.
In the photo we see a moving orb that seems to be making a turn in Grand Central Terminal.
Even though there doesn't seem to be a person behind the orb, some might claim that this is a camera flash going off. But a flash looks different. Below is an example of how a camera flash looks when it is photographed: much more sun-like.

A Blue Speeding Orb
Photo date: March 26, 2018. Photographer: Mark Mahin.
The photo below shows a speeding blue orb I photographed at Grand Central Terminal in New York. In the middle of this motion path we see a sharp right-angle turn. See here for 48 other photos I have taken of orbs making sharp right-angle turns.

Like a Bird in the Orb
Photo date: March 25, 2018. Photographer: Mark Mahin.
The photo below shows a mysterious orb I photographed indoors. Inside the orb we see what rather looks like the shape of a bird with extended wings.

Orb on a Ledge
Photo date: March 22, 2018. Photographer: Mark Mahin.
The photo below shows what I have often photographed before: a mysterious orb that looks as if it is perched on a little ledge at Grand Central Terminal in New York.
Below are some of the previous photos I have taken showing something similar.

Another Orb With a Right-Slanted 11
The photo on the left shows a mysterious orb I photographed indoors on March 23, 2018. The photo on the right shows a mysterious orb I photographed indoors on February 27, 2018, as reported here. In both orbs we see what looks the number 11, with a slanting to the right.
I have also three times photographed mysterious orbs with the number 7 inside them, as you can see by looking at this post.

Both Orbs Aligned
Photo date: March 19, 2018. Photographer: Mark Mahin.
To an astonishing degree, my photos show orbs aligning with lines and edges, such as structural lines and the edges of flags. You can see 282 examples of aligning orbs in this series of photos. In the photos below, we see two mysterious orbs that are both aligning to lines. One aligns to the edge of a window, and the other aligns to the beveled edge line to the right of the window.

Weird Mark of the Strange Sky Orb

The photo below shows a mysterious orb I photographed in the sky. We see a very strange mark on the object, which looks like a line inside an oval.

Blue Edges of the Half Orbs
I took the photos below on February 14, 2018 and March 19, 2018. We see some of the strange half-orbs that I occasionally get (with fully round orbs being much more common). Both of the half orbs have a blue edge.
Below is another example from March 16, 2018.
An interesting speculation is that such photos show an orb in the process of appearing, hence the lack of full roundness.

A Video of Orb Veils
T. Gorman recently posted on youtube.com a video of anomalous photographs. The video shows many examples of the strange veil-like objects I call orb veils. You can see the video here. It's a sequel to a longer video you can see here, one that has some impressive examples (at the five minute mark) of the spooky mist-like phenomenon I call ectomist.
Voice from an Orb?
The Daily Mail online site always has a large interesting collection of stories that change every day. Yesterday there was a story in which a set of people told of paranormal experiences. One woman said that at a difficult moment an orb appeared, and she heard her deceased mother's voice. A related story can be found here.

Astonishing Repetitions
On her Facebook page, Andrea Corsick has an astonishing photo showing an effect like something I've seen repeatedly. The photo (which will probably require a Facebook login) can be seen here.
What we see in her photo is a strange purple-green veil-like object which has four repetitions of a kind of clover-leaf pattern. I get something similar repeatedly when I photograph falling water drops: a single strange effect repeated multiple times in the same photo, in a way that seems fantastically unlikely to be occurring by chance. The effect may be face-like details (as shown in these 347 photos), or ring shapes (as shown in these 60+ photos), or stripes (as shown in these 61 photos). In all of these the same weird thing will show up from 2 to 20 or more times in the same photo.
Here is an example from March 8, 2018. I took the photo while photographing nothing but ordinary water drops falling.
You can see some of Andrea's astonishingly colorful photos of the mysterious here (no Facebook login required).

The photo below shows a speeding blue orb I photographed in Grand Central Terminal in New York.
At the same spot I photographed the blue orb shown below, which has a strange little yellow spot near its bottom. It's one of 50+ photos I have taken showing mysterious orbs aligning to the row of lights at Grand Central.

Pure But Puzzling
Photo date: March 8, 2018. Photographer: Mark Mahin.
We see below two water drops. I took the photos while photographing nothing but ordinary drops of pure, clean water falling against a dark background. The appearance of these rings in the water drops is inexplicable. This week I tried to reproduce the effect by using exactly the same photographic setup, but got no such rings. And why are two of the rings orange?

In the one on the top right, we can see both an outer ring (near the outer edge of the orb), and an inner ring (next to the hole in the orb).
