Orb Veil Reappears With Same Shape

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

The photos below were taken while photographing nothing but ordinary drops of pure, clean water falling against a dark featureless background.  The first photo shows what I frequently photograph: a pair of strange veil-like structures (what I call orb veils) appearing in a congruent stack, with two or more of the objects having the same shape.  The bottom photo was taken three photos after the first photo.  It shows the orb veil object reappearing with the same shape.  So the sequence was:

Photo 1: Two orb veils with the same shape.
Photo 2: No orb veil.
Photo 3: No orb veil.
Photo 4: One orb veil with the same distinctive shape as in photo 1.

This is the third time I have seen this type of reappearance occurring with orb veils. The other two cases (which involved more distinctive shapes, one with 14 distinctive points) are here and here.  It's kind of like what you would experience if you first saw a ghost and then it disappeared and then it reappeared again with the same look as before.

Duplication of the Duplicating Orb Veil

Photo date: November 2, 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 photo shows two of the mysterious objects I call orb veils.   The two orb veils seem to have exactly the same shape. It's yet another example of a congruent stack of orb veils, shown also in this series of 21 photos.

The next photo was taken about seven seconds later.  We now see two congruent orb veils with exactly the same shape as the orb veils in the previous photo. But now the top orb veil is orange colored.

The next photo showed no such object.

This is the same type of phenomenon seen in this blog post, where I  photographed an orb veil with an extremely distinctive shape, and then (after two photos showing no such object) photographed another orb veil with exactly the same very distinctive shape.

There are two possibilities here. One possibility is that the two photos above show a congruent pair of orb veils that persisted for seven seconds, but changed color to orange. The second possibility is that the second photo shows a reappearance of a pair of orb veils, with the two orb veils having exactly the same very distinctive shape as the two orb veils that previously appeared. In either case we seem to have something quite paranormal that cannot at all be explained as some kind of transient splash or mundane light effect.

I may note that we cannot explain these orb veils as being water splashes on the camera lens. Whenever you have a water drop on the lens, it always results in a very blurry splotch, because the camera cannot focus on anything right on the lens. But  my orb veil photos such as these show objects with clear distinct details and nice sharp edges, meaning the object photographed cannot be  on the camera lens.

Orb Veil Reappears With the Exact Same 14-Point Shape

Photo date: August 29, 2015. Photographer: Mark Mahin.

Let us now look at a most astonishing pair of photos in which we see an inexplicable exact duplication that is very strong evidence that something paranormal was occurring.

Both photos were taken while I was photographing ordinary drops of pure, clean water falling against a dark background. My camera was resting on a stable platform.

The first photo in the pair is below. We see one of the objects I call "orb veils." I have 47 photos of these strange objects.  The photo also shows the equally mysterious objects I call "orb crescents." I have 37 photos of these strange objects, which are as hard to explain as the orb veils.

After taking this photo I took two other photos which showed no such object. When I took these photos the camera was in the exact same position, facing the same background.

I then took the photo below, which was taken roughly 20 seconds after the first photo. The photo below shows another orb veil. Very importantly, this orb veil has exactly the same very distinctive shape as the orb veil shown in the first photo.

I count some 14 exterior points or spiky edges on the first photo, and I see exactly the same points in exactly the same positions in the second photo. Moreover, in the bottom part of the orb veil shown in the first photo, we see two eye-like features consisting of concentric rings. If you look closely at the second photo, you can see exactly the same features, in the same area of the orb veil.

So what we see here is an orb veil reappearing with exactly the same very distinctive shape that we saw before.  Between the first photograph and the second photograph, the unmoved camera on a platform took 2 photos that showed no such thing. So this is a case that we must call a reappearance.

This exact reappearance is sufficient to rule out all normal explanations for these orb veils.  I can only think of two natural explanations for why one might see an orb veil like this in a photo: (1) perhaps we might be seeing some kind of "water splash" while photographing falling water drops; (2) perhaps we might be seeing some kind of "light flare" rather like lens flare.  But under such natural explanations, we would expect the shapes of the orb veils to have a completely random appearance each time. We would never expect to see two orb veils photographed in the same photo session to have exactly the same very distinctive shape, with each of 14 spiky points being in the same position. The chance of such a thing occurring by chance is less than 1 in a trillion (1 in 1,000,000,000,000).

Below is a photo that combines the two images.

The photo before the first photo and the photo after the second photo (both taken of the same background from the same fixed camera position) did not show any such orb veil. So there was this series of photos from the same fixed camera position: 1. No orb veil. 2. Orb veil with a distinctive 14-point shape. 3. No orb veil. 4. No orb veil. 5. Orb veil with the exact same 14-point shape. 6. No orb veil.
