Orb in the Sunset

24/9/2015

A beautiful lens-flare orb.

This type of orb with a half-moon halo, is often seen in photographs taken into a bright light with mobile phone cameras. These orbs can add to the image or not depending what you want to see.  


I took many photographs with my phone camera of this sunset in Darwin harbour (Australia) and all of the images had this same orb in them, which of course varied in position on my screen with the movement of my camera.  


The movement of the orb/s in images simultaneously with the movement of your camera, is how you tell if an orb is from lens-flare.

I continue to take orbs photographs as I love their beauty and energy.

Pink is the colour of the heart chakra and the colour of this orb is a similar  to that of rose-quartz, which is the associated healing crystal.

My First Book Launch - Notes

21/9/2015

0 Comments

 
Orb Insights and Inspirations - A Wonderland of Possibilities was published just over a year ago and launched in April this year. 

There are many people worldwide already interested in what the orbs are and others who have never heard of, or have never seen any orbs in photographs before, and who are now excited about taking their own orb photographs, or finding orbs in photographs that they have already taken.  I am pleased to have been able to introduce this phenomena to them through my book, this page, my market stalls and other social media/my websites (www.orbinsightsandinspirations.com will be closing next month-October 2015 and I will be using this site www.lexeneburns.com).

The orbs activate our curiosity and imagination, and for myself, have brought me back to my connection with nature, as it is in nature that I have taken many thousands of orb photographs, and have published over 200 of these, in this book, where I have also shared my insights into these magical light circles/beings. 

Orb Insights and Inspirations - A Wonderland of Possibilities, is in a softcover or ebook and can be purchased through www.facebook.com/OrbInsightsandInspirations 'Shop Now', or from this website's Book page.

I thank everyone for sharing their perspectives on this subject, as the orbs mean many things to many people.  Still, there is much to become known about these intriguing energies.

I always welcome your comments and feedback.

Love to All

More about Orbs

15/9/2015

Orbs in photographs mean many things to many people, but they connect us all even though we don't all agree as to what they are.

They bring love, joy and hope to many and a curiosity about spirit which is in us all. 

Even if the orbs are of dust, we of the earth, are of dust. We all go back to Mother Earth as dust; we began as dust - Stardust!   I quote from my book Orb Insights and Inspirations:

"These mysteries encourage us to become more curious, and to open our senses to a wonderland of possiblities.

Eventually this may lead us to acknowledge, and to the knowledge of, who we really are and from whence we came" -

Orbs - Lens Flare

9/9/2015

0 Comments

 
Lens flare is often seen in photographs taken into the sun, this is a description from Wikipedia, The Free Encyclopedia:

"Visible artifacts, usually in the shape of the lens iris, are formed when light follows a pathway through the lens that contains one or more reflections from the lens surfaces.Flare is particularly caused by very bright light sources either in the image – which produces visible artifacts – or shining into the lens but not in the image – which produces a haze.[dubious – discuss] Most commonly, this occurs when shooting into the sun (when the sun is in frame or the lens is pointed in the direction of the sun), and is reduced by using a lens hood or other shade."  

This photograph from my book is just one example of lens flare 'orbs'.   There is also another example of this same 'angel' effect which was taken with the same camera when I was in China.

Digital phone cameras also have their own type of lens flare orbs, which I have found from my own phone camera photographs, as well as in those that people have sent to me or posted on my fb.com/OrbInsightsandInspirations page. They usually appear as a very small bright orb, sometimes green and often with another 'half moon' area of light around them. 

The lens flare orbs either enhance the photograph or not, depending on how it is perceived.  They are another wonder of light, in this case sunlight; and technological magic!!

Orbs Can be Many Things

I love all of the various comments from my readers regarding the orbs and what they mean to them. 

To me they are many things and I just  love the way their energy enlivens my photographs.  They "Have an aliveness, a connectiveness, that activates our inquisitiveness" - © Lexene Burns, author.

Many Blessings - Lexene

Orbs on Full Moon 29 August 2015

3/9/2015

Last weekend was a full moon and on dusk I took many photos as the moon was rising.   There was one photograph that had a beautiful bright orb in it, the others had just a few faint orbs or none in the image. Regardless of capturing or not capturing orbs in my images, it was wonderful just being out in nature watching the moon rise as the sun set.
