[QUOTE="hark, post: 183453, member: 13196"] I agree. Sometimes this phenomenon is called [I][B]orbs[/B][/I]--not the orbs people who are spiritual talk about but the orbs that have to do with optics/photography. I am nearsighted and wear glasses. One time when I went in our backyard at night where we have security lights, the lights hit my glasses just right which created this orb effect. When I repositioned myself, the small circular lights disappeared. It only ever happened that one time. As Jake said, it probably had to do with the stage lighting and how the light bounced off dust near the stage. Here is a link to an explanation (Wikipedia has a link, but it won't work properly when I tried to post it): [URL="http://skeptics.stackexchange.com/questions/1246/what-is-the-scientific-explanation-of-orbs-in-photographs"]photography - What is the scientific explanation of "Orbs" in photographs? - Skeptics Stack Exchange[/URL] [/QUOTE]
