| Adipocere Quote | Reply | | Cemetery photos posted on: 2/20/2006 4:16:16 AM Here are two pictures taken with a digital camera at a local cemetery. I have been photographing this cemetery for years and every batch of photos always contain some anomaly. In the picture of the sign, the odd thing is the red glare on the sign itself. In every set of photographs I take there is at least one where the sign is somehow distorted. There is nothing reflective on the sign to cause this. (the lights in the background are from houses on the street) Sign In the other picture, you see a green and gold light. This picture was essentially taken in the woods in pitch black. There is no reason for those lights to be there. Lights |

replied on: 2/20/2006 4:26:25 AM The sign has the same affect that caused the lights in the distance to run; slow shutter speed and movement of the camera. As for the other picture of the lights, I will have to take a closer look. Can you send the full sized picture to me? warrior18eii@yahoo.com |

replied on: 2/20/2006 4:37:27 AM You are probably right about the sign photograph...the only reason I post it is because night or day, something unfailingly disrupts the sign when it is photographed. I will email you the other pic so you can take a look at it. |

replied on: 2/20/2006 5:48:02 AM Thanx for sending that photo, it is very interesting. At first I was thinking it was a bug from the small photo you posted here. After looking at it I don't think it is and I can't explain what it is... I have never seen anything like it! I cut it out and edited it for detail only. What does everyone else think?

replied on: 2/20/2006 6:14:16 AM The green anomaly is definitely strange. I've never seen anything like it either, so it's hard to comment. The only explainable cause that comes to mind would be a grave marker light, shining on a tombstone. The green anomaly seems to have some sort of texture to it, so it very well could be. The red anomalies in both photographs could be caused from a slow shutter and camera movement, but they could also be what are referred to as "plasma lights" or "plasma rods". It's really hard to say, but usually when a slow shutter speed and camera movement cause an anomaly like this, it is because of an external light source and i'm not seeing any in either of these photos. Doesn't there have to be some sort of light source to cause false positives like this, Frank? Thanks for sharing! - Aedryan |

replied on: 2/20/2006 6:25:01 AM He said in his original post that the squiggly lights are caused by houses in the background and was concentrating his question about the sign itself. I was wondering myself if the sign has any reflective component like that found on traffic signs? As for the green anomaly and the squiggly next to it. I don't know! He/she didn't say whether there was anything in the background to cause the squiggly. The external light source could be the flash itself reflecting off some unknown object unseen in the darkness (for the squiggly I mean). |

replied on: 2/21/2006 5:26:32 AM As far as the sign is concerned, it is painted with flat base white paint and black letters, there is nothing reflective about it. There is absolutely NO reason for there to be any lights in the other picture. I could post other pics taken around it and you will see that there is no glare off the headstones (indeed many plots have no headstones) and that it is completely dark, and in the middle of the woods. You literally have to use the moonilight as a guide because there are not even lamps in the cemetery. The cemetery itself started off as an old civil war slave cemetery but it is still used to this day, though it is not big. It is located in the woods behind an old mans house, the man who owns the land. Its decently maintained, but its is an interesting little place that has been completely ignored by development. |

replied on: 2/27/2006 2:59:01 PM There seems to be a double image of something like maybe a piece of phosphorescent costume jewelry imposed over the sign picture. Neat effect, but I am thinking a hoax. The other image is of a stop light taken at night, probably one that is suspended from a cable. Nothing supernatural there. |

replied on: 2/27/2006 5:38:35 PM Sorry, I am in the habit of calling traffic lights stop lights. And if you look, it's an angular image of a traffic light. If you have a suspended traffic light in your area, try photographing it at night from different angles and see what you get. |

replied on: 2/28/2006 2:13:14 AM Parlance, The edited picture I posted is a cut and enlarged image from a larger photo. The investigator who took the photo stated there is absolutely nothing in the background. |

replied on: 8/29/2006 5:53:55 AM Ok after chopping and Contrasting and Brighting the Image I have formed Two conclusions, It is Either a Spot where a Light is coming off a House and is reflection on some trees, They somtimes let a Green glow when that happens or you have a Definite Orb, I would suggest going to that place and Look for what I said, about a Light and trees, and if There is no possible Conclusion to that, You got yourself a Rare Orb sighting. 99.9% of people suspect Dust dirt and Debry for an Orb, so a real orb sighting is truley almost as Rare as an Aparition itself. |
