This is the same pic as my avatar. It is a picture of my daughter and myself in the hallway of my home. Notice the orb behind my head. It casts a shadow on my wall.
Another experience i have no proof now. I had a picture in my old cell phone which broke a week after i took the picture. My wife and I were in Whaley House, second floor. I was taking random pictures in the room with the vanity mirror. there was nothing there when I took the pic. I was leaving checking my phone and found a picture of a female face and body forming on the vanity stool. I showed the people that opened it up for tours that night. They wanted a copy. But my phone was one of the first flip phones and there was no way to get the pictures off of it.Lucky me huh!

Will,
Thank you for posting the photo. True orbs are very rare. Usually it is light refraction, insects or dust. Orbs do not usually cast any shadow. When i blew up the photo and really studied it, it's uneven nature on the wall behind you, does mimick your child's outline of their head and hair. It appears that the flash was on and your child's shadow was cast on the wall.
That is just my opinion, however. Does anyone else have any input???
