Thanks for posting those loot.

I'll give you my opinion. Before I do I'll tell you I've been a photographer for 35 years and a professional photographer for 25 years. I've also worked as a product specialist for one of the biggest digital camera producers in the world - in their digital camera tech support division. I know photoshop inside out (as well as other photo manipulation packages) and have a fairly comprehensive understanding of how lenses, chips and the image capture process works. I also post in an advisory capacity (as an Admin) on several paranormal websites where people have been posting orb pics for nearly ten years.
The top photo is moisture (varying sizes and various stages of evaporation) on the lens - hence the different sizes that give the impression of depth but are nothing to do with distance.
All the other pictures are micro dust particles at varying proximity to the lens and flash. I'd say each one of those orbs is within 1-2 cm of the lens. They're different sizes due to their distance and size since dust/moisture particles aren't uniform.
As a test - take some pics with the flash turned off - see if you get orbs. You may get one or two depending on other light sources and their location relative to the camera but you certainly wont get them to this degree.

When my pictures show up "orbs" I tend to believe
the cause is dust, lighting or weather.

Of course that is just my opinion. Very Happy

Oh....welcome to the forum Loot.
A bit late there on the take.
