And you will for many more years, with many more cameras (digital and
otherwise). It's dust motes in the air. *All* 'orb' photographs are
dust motes in the air being magnified by the way the camera lens bends
light.

All, that is, except 'chains of orbs'. They're not ghosts either;
they're the wriststrap of the camera dangling in front of the lens and
being illuminated by the flash.

(Yes, I *know* you know what the orbs are. This post is for the benefit
of anyone who might be thinking "Woo, ghost evidence!!!111eleventyone)
