So many orbs!

Many who know me are aware that I believe in an after-life. What many do not know is how much I dig ghost tours and walks through grave yards... especially on a ghost tour.

I've never had my camera on a ghost tour. Not until Friday night when my One-and-Only (OAO) and I were in Strasburg, PA and decided to take their tour.

One of the last stops was at the cemetery. Our guide suggested that if we had digital cameras, we should snap pictures to see what appears. Never having experimented with graveyard photography, I seriously thought she was kidding. Like I was gonna snap a picture and get and orb. The first picture, we thought the orbs were street lights - until further examination showed they were too high in the sky for that.

Then, I got all jazzed and started taking pictures. Surely, there was something on my camera lens or something... or not?

So then I'm just snapping pictures. I got this great one before I knew that it was the head stone for a woman named Annie - who haunts the most haunted house in Strasburg.



And it seems the spirit in that first picture is hanging around in the second one (when I knew it was Annie's grave).



When we left the graveyard, I just snapped a picture to see what would appear:



Before we got to the grave yard, we heard about Annie and her hauntings at this GORGEOUS house on Main Street. I was just snapping pictures of a pretty house. Wasn't even hoping for an orb... can you see it by the chair on the porch? FYI, that big circle at the top is the porch light. Duh.



After the graveyard, we went back to the haunted house... and snapped this.



I've decided when I go into old towns with lots of history, I'm gonna have to take my camera and just start snapping :) It just confirms my belief that spirits are always around us!
