A Line of Colorful Sky Orbs

Photo date: August 25, 2015. Photographer: Mark Mahin.

The photo below shows a town hall where I once saw a colorful show, a high-school production of The Music Man.  On this night some orbs seemed to be putting on their own colorful show above the town hall. We see orbs that are pink, purple, green, and greenish-blue.

Blue Orb Mingles With the Humans

Photo date: August 20, 2015. Photographer: Mark Mahin.

The photo below was taken in Grand Central Station in New York (right click to see the photo at its full resolution). We see a blue orb floating among some human figures.  There is some high strangeness to be discovered in this photo, other than just the orb.

The photo below shows a drop of pure, clean water photographed falling against a dark background. We see a blue orb with a rather cute face, along with an orange orb. For many similar photos, watch this astonishing video.

Like a Ring of Children Surrounding Their Parents

Photo date: August 17, 2015. Photographer: Mark Mahin.

The photo shows the Schwarzman  branch of the New York Public library. We see in the top left corner what looks like a ring of orbs surrounding two big orbs in the center. It reminds me of a ring of children surrounding their parents.

The photo above was taken at 9:11, and a photo taken a few seconds earlier (also at 9:11) was of a piece of cardboard at arm's length. As always, this photo showed no orbs in front of the cardboard, indicating that I was not photographing particles (such as dust) near the camera.

There was no fog, mist, rain, or precipitation on this night.  The air quality listed on airnow.gov was moderate, with a rating of 51 (just above the level of 50 that would qualify as good).


Puzzling Orange Orb Livens Up a Quiet Street

Photo date: August 23, 2015. Photographer: Mark Mahin.

Despite New York City's reputation as "the city that never sleeps," on this night Madison Avenue was quite quiet around 10:00 PM. There weren't even many pedestrians. But things were livened up a bit by the appearance of this vivid orange orb in the sky.  It wasn't the moon, which was only a half moon on this night.

There was no fog, mist, rain, or precipitation on this night. The air quality listed on airnow.gov was "good," with a rating of 24 (anything below 50 is considered good).

Speeding Orb Hurtles Past the Crowd

Photo date: July 31, 2015. Photographer: Mark Mahin.

The photo below was taken in Grand Central Station in New York. At the top of the photo, we see a bright white orb that seems to be moving very fast.

Below is a closeup of the moving orb. The camera seems to have caught two position states of a speeding object.

Mysteries Above the Museum

Photo date: August 23, 2015. Photographer: Mark Mahin.

"Mysteries at the Museum" is an entertaining TV show on the Travel channel.  Maybe they can do their next episode about this little mystery: the appearance of mysterious orbs floating above the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York City. That is what is shown in the photo below, which shows the back side of the museum.


There was no fog, mist, rain, or precipitation on this night. The air quality listed on airnow.gov was "good," with a rating of 24 (anything below 50 is considered good). The air was very clean when I took this photo, not only because of the air quality, but also because the photo was taken inside Central Park, away from the city streets.
