Below we see a photo I took of the bottom of an unmoving glass jar in which I had put a small amount of cold water. We seem to see some orb moving about in a circular path, at astonishing speeds.

Five Spinning Orbs
Photo date: August 27, 2019. Photographer: Mark Mahin.
I took the photo below while photographing only ordinary drops of pure, clean water falling in front of a black featureless background. We see here five examples of an effect I call the orb centrifuge effect, in which orbs seem to spin around the outer edges of a water drop. See here for 100+ examples of this effect, very many of which seem to show face-like details.

Orb Holes
Photo date: May 28, 2019. Photographer: Mark Mahin.
I took the photo below while photographing nothing but ordinary drops of pure, clean water falling in front of a dark, featureless background. We see what I have so often photographed before: orbs with strange holes in them. You can see right through one of the holes.
On the same day I took the photo below, in which you see some strange circular features inside a single drop of clean, pure water, apparently spinning around at a high speed. It looks like another example of the "orb centrifuge effect" I have 100 times previously photographed.

Spooky Spin Spectacle
Photo date: January 14, 2017. Photographer: Mark Mahin.
I took the photo below while photographing nothing but ordinary drops of pure, clean water falling against a dark featureless background. We see an effect I used to get quite frequently, but which I don't get that often these days: what I call the orb centrifuge effect, in which orbs seem to be spinning around the outer edges of a water drop, like test tubes in a centrifuge.
The poster below shows numerous photos I previously took of this strange effect. Open the image in a separate browser tab to see it at higher resolution. You can see the original photos here.

Aqueous Anomalies
Photo date: January 2, 2017. Photographer: Mark Mahin.
The photos below were taken while photographing ordinary drops of pure, clean water falling against a dark background. We see strange face-like details, and in the right photo we see an example of what I call the orb centrifuge effect, in which orbs seem to spin around the outer edges of a water drop, like test tubes in a doctor's centrifuge. See here for a composite photo showing 48 examples of this strange effect.

Weird Water Whirl
Photo date: February 18, 2016. Photographer: Mark Mahin.
The photo below was taken while photographing nothing but ordinary drops of pure, clean water falling against a dark featureless background. We see several orbs that seem to be spinning around very rapidly inside a water drop. It's another example of the orb centrifuge effect I have photographed nearly 100 times.

Strange Spinners
Photo date: February 17, 2016. Photographer: Mark Mahin.
The photo below was taken while photographing nothing but ordinary drops of pure, clean water falling against a dark featureless background. We see two water drops that are each displaying what I call the orb centrifuge effect, in which orbs spin around the outer edges of a water drop.

Speed Inside a Water Drop
Photo date: January 30, 2016. Photographer: Mark Mahin.
The photo below was taken while photographing nothing but ordinary drops of pure, clean water falling against a dark featureless background. We see a water drop that seems to have within it orbs that are spinning about very rapidly. It's another example of what I call the orb centrifuge effect, shown very dramatically in this composite image.

Water Drop Marvels
Photo date: January 22, 2016. Photographer: Mark Mahin.
The photo below was taken while photographing nothing but ordinary drops of pure, clean water falling against a dark featureless background. We see a water drop that seems to have within it several cheerful-looking orbs. To their left we see an orb that seems to be spinning rapidly around the orbs in the center.
The photo was cropped from the larger photo below.
On the same day I got the photo below showing a bright blue orb in a water drop, one that looks as happy as a clam.

Whirling Wonders
Photo date: January 9, 2016. Photographer: Mark Mahin.
The photo below was taken while photographing nothing but ordinary drops of pure, clean water falling against a dark featureless background. We see a single drop of water that seems to have within it several orbs that are spinning around the outer edges of the water drop. It's another example of what I call the orb centrifuge effect. See this poster for 48 similar examples.

Did This Orb Change Color As It Sped?
Photo date: March 23, 2015. Photographer: Mark Mahin.
The previously unpublished photo below was taken while photographing nothing but ordinary drops of pure, clean water falling against a dark featureless background. At the bottom of this water drop, we see what could be a group of orbs with different colors. Or perhaps the camera captured multiple position states of a single orb that is changing color as it speeds. The orange-green color of one of the orbs is remarkable.
See here for a composite photo showing 48 water drops that have spinning orbs inside them.

A Speeding Striped Orb
Photo date: December 19, 2015. Photographer: Mark Mahin.
The photos below was taken while photographing nothing but ordinary drops of pure, clean water falling against a dark featureless background.
If you come to this blog often, you will know that the water drops I photograph have an eerie and preternatural tendency to appear very, very often in shockingly non-random and orderly ways, such as appearing to have faces, or appearing with stripes, or appearing in ring shapes. Below we see two different examples of this weirdness. Below what looks like two faces, we see a striped orb that seems to be speeding at a great speed, in a circle. Below it are some other strange striped orbs.

48 Water Drops With Spinning Orbs
The photo below is a composite photo showing 48 different photos I have taken. Each photo shows the same astonishing thing: a water drop that has spinning orbs inside it. The photos show the amazing effect that I call the orb centrifuge effect, because when it occurs we see orbs that spin around the edges of water drops, like test tubes spinning around in a laboratory centrifuge. You can see the original photos by looking at the photos in this series. Right click on the photo below to see it at its full resolution (you will get much better resolution if you open up the image in its own separate page).

Wet Wonders Speed Around in Water Drops
Photo date: December 14, 2015. Photographer: Mark Mahin.
The photos below were taken while photographing ordinary drops of pure, clean water falling against a dark featureless background. In the first photo we see three water drops that each seem to have orbs speeding around inside them. The blue orb at the top has an unusual color.
On the same day I photographed the orbs below, one of which seems to be moving quite fast.

Rainbow Orb Above the "Toothy" Orb
Photo date: December 12, 2015. Photographer: Mark Mahin.
The photo below was taken while photographing ordinary drops of pure, clean water falling against a dark featureless background. Near the top we see an orb that seems to have kind of rainbow stripes within it (I can see colors of purple, yellow, green, and blue). Below that orb is an orb that seems to have a toothy grin. On the left is a sun-like orb that also seems to have a smile (which you can see if you look closely).

Mysterious Spinning Orbs
Photo date: December 11, 2015. Photographer: Mark Mahin.
The photo below was taken while photographing ordinary drops of pure, clean water falling against a dark featureless background. We see a single drop of water that seems to have some orbs inside that are spinning very rapidly. It's another example of what I call the orb centrifuge effect, in which orbs spin around the outer edges of a water drop, like test tubes in a centrifuge. See here for 85 other examples of this strange effect.

The Fast Orbs and the "Big-Nosed" Orbs
Photo date: December 4, 2015. Photographer: Mark Mahin.
The photos below were taken while photographing ordinary drops of pure, clean water falling against a dark featureless background. The first one shows some water drop orbs that seem to have rather large noses. The orange one looks the cutest. See here for 278 similar photos.
The second photo (from October 20, 2015) shows orbs speedier than the ones above. We see two water drops that both seem to have orbs spinning around at a very rapid pace. It's another example of the orb centrifuge effect shown in these 84 posts.

Which Water Drop Has Faster Orbs?
Photo date: November 22, 2015. Photographer: Mark Mahin.
The photo below was taken while photographing ordinary drops of pure, clean water falling against a dark featureless background. We see two water drops, both of which seem to show orbs moving very fast. Which one wins the speed contest? It's the one on the bottom, where we see an example of the orb centrifuge effect, in which orbs spin rapidly around the outer edges of a water drop. It's the same astonishing effect shown very clearly in this series of 81 posts.
