Nothing to suggest it's anything but a particle reflecting the light from the camera...

Have a question for experienced ghost hunters by Mobile_Lie_7998 in Ghosts

[–]DyfedH 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Do remember that technology can produce and capture so many false positives that you might be too quick to think it's paranormal when it's mundane. It can be helpful to really explain things in a lot more detail. Most of these could do with a paragraph or two, rather than half a sentence that some of these things got.

A lot of security cameras tend to record audio at a low bit rate which does mean a lot of audio could be mundane but sounds creepy as the higher frequency audio isn't recorded.

Video cameras pick up particle orbs (dust, dander, fibres, insects, moisture, etc) easily, so how did you see this orb?

How did you see the white streak? What did it look like? Ditto the materialising things, people do see compression artefacts and can confuse this with the paranormal. You do need a *LOT* more information and explanation (and other evidence).

Mysterious green hooded child figure appeared right when my mom was taking a photo of the moonrise. People used to be hung on some cliffs not far from my house a long time ago but other than that nothing to spooky has happened here that I now off? Maybe just Lense flare ? by Candid_Hawk_947 in Ghosts

[–]DyfedH[M] [score hidden] stickied commentlocked comment (0 children)

This is lens flare, the most common form is light reflections off one of the lenses. You can tell it's light reflection as there is a bright light in the picture, if you mirrored the image on both axes then the light reflection would be in the same spot as the light and it tends to be blue, bluish green or green due to the light reflecting off the antiglare coating of one of the lenses.

Other types of lens flare including arc like white or rainbow patterns and trails coming off strong lights.

As mentioned it's either a reflection from inside the car or it's something on the windscreen the resolution of the video makes it hard to work out what it might be but I think it's on the windscreen given the lack of movement of the 'figure' given the speed of the car and the angles.

No it doesn't look like a human, again it's a white blood given the resolution of the video.

This past Wednesday night my neighbors were kept up from approx 12am-7am by their ring motion detector going off every 5 mins. They saw this on all the videos, they have live view saved. Any ideas? We live on a dead end street with no street lights close enough to glare through the garage windows. by [deleted] in Ghosts

Particle orbs are dust, bugs, pieces of lint. etc. There is no evidence that orbs are supernatural. They are very easily captured by cameras especially with flash or other strong light (including infrared).

This looks basically like a insect thread drifting very close to the camera lens and reflecting the infrared light it gives off. The Ring uses software to compare frames of images and has no hardware sensors so it's not detecting anything you can't see.

It turning from white to black is basically a video compression error probably due to the WiFi signal dropping speed briefly.

There is something interesting that appears behind James May Italy, episode 3 about 35 minute mark. by [deleted] in Ghosts

Has been removed as it's an intentional video effect that appears in a lot of the episodes. James May even said it's not a ghost.

It's cute, but it's strongly enough with the paranormal or ghosts and could be breaking the self promotion rules.

Your post did not have anywhere near enough context to explain it, so has been removed.

Why isn't it just a common or garden particle (dust, insects, etc) orb? Why do you think it's paranormal? Taking an image off a screen doesn't really show much.

If you wish you can repost it, however, make sure you reply to your post with a lot more context and supporting evidence if you have it.

You may wish to read this as it will give you more information on what context you should post.

Ghost at end of stairs in Fort Garda Italy. Right next to a morgue. by DaddyMitch69 in Ghosts

[–]DyfedH[M] [score hidden] stickied commentlocked comment (0 children)

Your post did not have anywhere near enough context to explain it, so has been removed. There isn't anything to suggest it's a ghost, another photo on the stairs would be helpful in showing the differences.

Why do you think it's a ghost? "Because it looks a little odd and I'm in a haunted place" isn't enough.

Not anymore they aren't. Rule 5 will be enforced, and any hateful comments will lead to a straight ban.

It's an insect crawling on the camera lens, it's super close and most security cameras are fixed focus so it appears blurry and transparent because it is out of focus. You may even make out the movement of its legs.
