The other day on a message board I was accused of ridiculing somebody for my reply to their post offering spirit photography lessons. I wrote a fairly long and detailed reply offering up my expertise on the subject right there on the board, without people having to resort to taking some kind of formal lessons. Apparently, I stepped on somebody's toes, because my post was taken down by the powers that be in short order. A lesson learned. Far be it from me to impinge upon somebody's ability sell themselves and their 'talents' on AOL's message board system.
Here, however, is an entirely different matter. In my personal journal, I can chose to make my expertise available to all for free if I so choose.
I so choose. Herewith, find attached evidence of my mad spirit photography skillz. I have 'em. You can have 'em too. This entry shows the evidence. If there is interest, I will do another entry detailing my methods.
An introductory note: All of the photographs in this entry are (with the exception of one) taken by me, and, other than some cropping and resizing for editorial purposes, unmanipulated. No photoshopping here. These are pictures of actual phenomena.
First, let me introduce you to Matthew. Many of you, if you have been reading me for a while, have heard me mention his name. You may even have seen a picture or two of him here from time to time. Little known to us, Matthew has a guardian spirit who helps him with his homework. I have taken hundreds of pictures of Matthew before, and never before seen anything like this before. However, I had never before taken a picture of him doing homework before. Yesterday I did, and got this.
It looks like, in this picture, there is a spirit of some kind hovering over Matt's head as he does his homework. In fact, if you look close enough you can see what looks like fingers reaching out to touch his head; almost as if some kind of otherworldly knowledge were being imparted to him. This may explain many of his teacher's comments regarding Matthew's homework assignments. Obviously, the answers he is providing are simply beyond her ability to comprehend.
I enhanced the above photo with specialty software to reveal this:
You can clearly see the otherworldly violet aura surrounding the spirit manifestation. It is in stark contrast to the more earthly colours of the rest of the photograph. You can even see that aura impacting on the hanging, potted plant in the background. I always wondered why that plant grew so well.
A photograph taken a moment later reveals that this spirit falls into the famous spirit photography category of a vortex spirit. This appears to be a rare double vortex. Or a close up of the ghost's elbow, I'm not sure.
One night I was in my basement, trying to take a picture of my cat. She didn't want to sit still for the picture, and was very restless. Later, when I looked at the pictures, I saw this:
Look very carefully at the left hand side of the picture, and you will see the visible manifestation of spirit orbs. There are several to be seen in the picture, but the clearest one is right near the top of the frame. I have enlarged it to bring out more detail. You can clearly see a face, not unlike that of the man in the moon, on the close-up of this orb. These orbs are obviously ghosts. Due to the similarities in appearance, it is also quite clear that the moon is a ghost, too.
I have hypothesized that these ghosts were attempting to protect my cat, when she did not want to have her picture taken by me. Due to my frequent sneezing at the time, I suspect that these were the ghosts of cats, thereby causing my allergies to flare up. On a related note, we have been erroneous in using the terminology 'the man in the moon' all these years. We should have been saying, 'the cat in the moon.'
I was outside the other night, and happened, entirely by accident, to take a picture of the tree in my front yard. When I looked at the picture later I was amazed by the amazing colours of the colourful lights I saw.
Look at the colourful illumination of the snow on both sides of the street. And the colourful lights in the background, behind the tree. None of these colourful lights was colourful like those colours to my eye. Obviously, the spirit world is at work here. There must be many ghosts of painters around the Aurora area.
Look how the lights in this close up appear to be dancing around the telephone pole. In colours.
What AWV entry would be complete without a picture of the redoubtable Shadow? Here he is with a piece of garden edging in his mouth. Somehow, he managed to tear this up out of ground that was frozen solid during our -30 degree cold snap a couple of weeks ago. It was originally about twenty five feet long. This is what is left. As you can see, of any member of our family, Shadow attracts more spirit attention than any other. They are drawn to the young, and cute.
This picture shows Shadow surrounded by ghostly orbs. There are dozens of them in view, maybe hundreds, and remarkably, every single one of them unique. Not a one exactly like any other. (It's because they used to be people, and people are all different).
Finally, here are two astounding pictures of spirit phenomena. I have saved the best for last. I have elected to link to the pictures rather than post them here so I could show them at a larger size, the better to view fine details. The first example is a picture I took in my back yard one January evening. I was standing there, doing nothing, minding my own business, with a digital camera in my hand, when I inexplicably started feeling cold. I suspected there was a spirit, or ghost nearby. Breathing heavily with fear, and fear, I raised the camera and snapped a few frames. The first picture is here: http://members.aol.com/plittle/ghostface.jpg . In this picture, one can see the bio-thermal pulmono-exhalatory cloud as it coalesces. If you look very carefully, you can just make out the outlines of a face.
The second picture was taken a moment later, but still slightly too early. The carbondioxygenic vapourous apparition had not yet fully formed. Yet, the image is unmistakable. It is still quite fuzzy, but you can clearly see that this is the spirit of a young woman wearing a hat. http://members.aol.com/plittle/ghostface2.jpg .
I am left to wonder; who was this woman? When did she walk this earth? What is she doing in my back yard?
I would like to close this topic with a short statement. We at Aurora Walking Vacation are on a quest for the truth, and are interested in an open minded examination of these phenomena. We invite all discussion, as long as it agrees with our views. Be advised that anyone who suggests there are rational, scientific explanations for our results will find their closed-minded comments immediately deleted, and their rude, harassing asses banned from making subsequent comments. Furthermore, we may complain about them on the message board and threaten to report them to AOL, the police, the F.B.I., and our Alien Overlords. Remember, open minded means, "in agreement with my point of view."

Truly amazing pieces of supernatural photography and research. I look forward to more of your publications on this facinating phenomenon.
How very interesting. You should have a faithful following in short order with this piece. You know I was just studying some of the bio-thermal pulmono-exhalatory clouds in some of my pictures and was wondering if anyone else had any thoughts on such matters and here's a perfect entry! Of course, I'm not nearly as lucky as you, I haven't found a picture yet with a carbondioxygenic vaporous apparition. So my only question left is what do you charge for such analyses of pictures? Your professional demeanor is exactly what I've been looking for! Bravo!
Oh, by the way, I've also found cleaning the lint off my camera lenses seems to scare the spirits off, so load that lens up with lint and bring on the apparitions!

I suspect that the spirit of this posting will also be over some people's heads.
So, have you dabbled with Kirlian photography also?
Excuse me. I have to go check in with Lord Kimboat.
Karen and her spirit friends
LOL!! What more can I say? And the 2nd linked picture! I love it!!!! Hehe!
Kell
I think the orb by Kitty, might just be a hair ball! lol lol lol I neither agree with you or disagree with you Paul.... and I try not shun other's beliefs while forming my own......"To each his own" and that about covers politics, religion and the after life! lol lol lol
Paul,
As clearly evidenced by the first picture in your post, there is a left-handed individual in your household who was sharing the 'homework' table with Matthew at the time of the appearance of his guardian angel. (Or if not a member of your household, that person was at least IN your house at the time of appearance.)
A little-known fact about us southpaws is the proclivity of otherworldy spirits to be drawn to us. If you had taken the advice of the person whose post you allegedly ridiculed, you would, of course, be aware of this. Which may then beg the question of reasons for spiritual apparitions in proximity to your pets. Another fact, of which most North Americans are blissfully ignorant, is that left-handedness (or paw-edness) is a dominant trait rather than a recessive one in the animal kingdom.
If you'd like any more sage advice on the facts behind spirit photography, I suggest you make a profound apology and go begging for lessons on the AOL message boards.

I can't prove it, but I'm thinking the orbs around Shadow may be Ghost Fleas...Do they make a dip for that?
ROFL!!! That last paragraph was killer! And the bio-thermal pulmono-exhalatory cloud coalescence looks more like a bunny rabbit to me but then I flunk Rorschach blots... ;) Penny

not only do I believe in guardian Angels but my son is blessed with the gift to see and hear his. My three year old has been seeing spirits since he was born but never was it more evident then about 6 months ago. My oldest sleeps through the night and almost never gets up until morning. My mother usually comes up and stays with us on the weekends. Well one weekend about 2 in the morning I was awoken by my moms coughing. She was in the hallway outside my door which is unusual because she has her own bathroom. I got up to see what the problem was to find our bathroom on fire. Flames all the way up the wall to the ceiling. My son told me "they told me to get up. They said it was time to get Nana." I asked him who told him to get up and he told me "his grampy said it was time to wake Nana and go down stairs." two days after that my son came to me crying saying his grampy was gone and he wanted to go get him. His grampy died in 1994 my son was born in 2001. He told me "grampy said he had to leave now. He said he had to go far far away." Then he begged me to go find him. That's not the first spirit or the last spirit he saw but to me it was the best. Who ever woke him and told him to get his Nana may have saved our lives. That night we found out the smoke detector on that floor didn't work. So yes I believe.

Cool photos Paul...my cousin belongs to a well known ghost research society in England, and we have one here, the South Jersy Ghost Research, who wants to come out and investigate my house, due to paranormal activity, and photos Ive taken, one which clearly shows the face of a woman in our second story window, with no explanation possible of how it got there. Pretty amazing stuff! ~mary anne~
Look at all those orbs! Maybe that's where my son's homework helper is, cuz we sure could use one. So quit hogging all the spirit orbs. ~Sie http://journals.aol.com/sieblonde/Pfft
