I have been attending Burning Man since 2000. I liken Burning Man to an experience in an alternate reality of harmony, creativity and freedom. It is a stimulating environment where the eye and the brain don’t always match up because what we “think” we know is often challenged. That is what makes this event so amazing! When photos were developed at that time, a number of them appeared to have “dust” on them.
One day as I was looking through my photo album and I realized that “the dust” had definite shapes. Not only did I start to question what I thought, I realized I wasn’t “seeing” what was in these photos. This is when I started to go through 5 years of Burning Man photos .
Here are 2 photos taken very close together.
I seemed to be the only person who was questioning these little round, sometimes jelly fish shaped objects. No one else was seeing them, until … !
What about these?! (BM 2001, 2005)
And then the world of digital! The detail became much clearer. Often mandela like, or ones that resembled ancient calendars with different colours within them …..
Close up of above.
These were an experiment taken one after the next.
And then, within the last 3 months (now December 2007) I found these film photos from 2005! Look closely. This is when I really got excited and decided to get a digital camera.
Not only did this get me really charged at what was appearing in my camera, others started to send me their photos as well. Here is a sampling of them.
Enjoy!
This is the brightest orb that has appeared so far at my December 2007 workshop – Clear Your Path. I initially thought it was a lamp at the end of the room. It is pink and green under the zoom. There are more than 6 other orbs in this room as well. The comparison photo taken 30 seconds later is included as well.

Orb Dream
The latest orb to appear was in my dream a week ago, last week of January 2008. It was a beautiful rose pink. I held out my hand and as an invitation. It came and placed itself on my right hand. I then gently put my hands on either side of it. It had an incredibly harmonious consciousness of loving joy that permeated my hands, travelled through my arms and into my body. This feeling has been with me ever since!
This is what I now FEEL orbs are.

I just found this photo (Aug 200eight) from a CD my brother had created. Note the hexagon shapes. This is the first time this shape has appeared in my pictures.
