Below we see a mysterious striped orb I photographed outdoors.

"Yellow-Bellied" Sky Orbs

Photo date: December 9, 2016. Photographer: Mark Mahin.

The photo below shows two similar-sized objects which both have a glow. Which one was the moon?

The moon is at the bottom. The object at right is a mysterious orb.  Below is a closeup that shows a strange kind of "yellow belly."

The orb resembles another sky I photographed two days earlier, which also had a yellow side and an orange aura.

There was no fog, mist, rain or precipitation on either of these nights.

Just Another Orb Night

Photo date: May 10, 2016. Photographer: Mark Mahin.

Sky Sweethearts?

Photo date: May 16, 2016. Photographer: Mark Mahin.

The photo below shows a pink orb and a purple orb above a building in New York. The two seem so close that we may speculate as to whether they had a romantic attachment.

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

Fast Orb and the Purple Orb

Enigmatic Extravaganza of the Colorful Sky Orbs

Photo date: May 8, 2016. Photographer: Mark Mahin.

The photo below shows several orbs floating near a building in New York City: a big purple orb, a red orb, a blue orb, and an orange orb.

A Striped Purple-Red Sky Orb

Photo date: May 9, 2016. Photographer: Mark Mahin.

The photo below shows a striped purple-red orb above some buildings in New York City.

Below is a closeup of the strange orb (I used the IrfanView "Auto-adjust colors" menu option on the closeup).

 This is the 13th time I have photographed a striped orb floating in the air, as shown here (the link shows several other striped sky orbs). 

There was no rain, fog, mist or precipitation on this night. The air quality listed on airnow.gov was "good."

Note how in the top photo we see lots of orbs, but  none of them in front of the buildings. That's a strong indication we are not seeing any particles near the camera, which would be evenly scattered around the photo area.  See here for 31 similar photos, many of which show lots of orbs in the sky, but no orbs in front of buildings at the bottom of the photos.

Baby Orb Clinging to its Mom?

Photo date: May 7, 2016. Photographer: Mark Mahin.

The photo below shows two orbs above a building in New York City: a tiny blue orb that is right next to a purple orb. It reminds me of a baby clinging to its mother. But maybe I have this interpretation merely because it's Mother's Day.

There was no rain, fog, mist or precipitation on this night. The air quality listed on airnow.gov was "good," with a rating of 28.

The Speckled Sky

Photo date: February 7, 2016. Photographer: Mark Mahin.

Ascending Orb and the Blue Sky Glow

Photo date: May 5, 2016. Photographer: Mark Mahin.

The photo below shows a yellow orb that seems to be speeding up into the sky. To the right we see an eerie blue glow in the sky, as I have several times previously photographed.  Should we call this a paranormal twofer?

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

Was This Pink Orb Peeking Through the Window?

Photo date: January 30, 2016. Photographer: Mark Mahin.

The photos below shows a pink orb with a spot on its side. The orb almost looks as if it is peeking through a window. Was it curious about the people living inside?

Spooky Skyscraper Surveillance?

Photo date: April 8, 2016. Photographer: Mark Mahin.

The photo below shows a colorful group of orbs above a building in New York City.

Below is a closeup of an unusual near the middle of this photo. We see what looks to me a little like a laughing face looking to the left. But you may not see that. To you it may look more like some strange alien planet.

A Red Sky Orb

Photo date: April 8, 2016. Photographer: Mark Mahin.
