Here are a few interesting pictures I captured while attending the 2007 South Coast Paranormal Convention
at the Glen Tavern Inn in Santa Paula. I will be adding more to this page as I review and organize what I shot, and
recorded. These I found very interesting.
You know, by now, my feelings on Orbs...I do not necessarily believe
them to be definite signs of a haunting or spirit energy. I did capture some interesting ones though, that I chose to
share.
I had really hoped that I could try to be one of those "Orb Free" Zones...but there are some that
are interesting, and the timing, and location of their capture is sometimes odd...
So you make the judgements...I'm
just sharing what I find interesting...
This Orb, in the center top of photo, was captured in my room at the Inn. I am not necessarily saying it is 'anything'
but I thought it was unusual due to the striations that can be seen. It is also rather bright. This is not what
I refer to as a 'Gel Orb', but I thought it was kind of cool.

I love this next picture. It was taken in the lobby at the Glen Tavern Inn, in the very early hours of the morning...yes
I was STILL up.
The very bright, white orb-like light, at the top, is a reflector plate caught in the flash. I
have had this effect previously, and decided to check on what created it. So I know it is the reflector plate.
But, if you look below the bright white light, you can see two electric blue orb shapes. I saw nothing that could have
been in the area to reflect that color of blue. I can't say they are 'anything' paranormal, but I really
loved the shot.

This next picture is interesting. I took it in my room. I know what I was seeing when I took the picture.
Both side table lamps were on, and there was no dark area in between them. They put off pretty good light. The
room was bright. I also KNOW my finger was not covering the flash, I am very careful about that, but IF I were covering
the flash, I don't believe the lamp on the left would still be bright...
I found the picture kind of strange, so
I thought I would share it...You be the judge...

Here is a shot in the entry to the 1st floor hallway at the Inn.
Notice directly to my right, and then a little further,
to the second door on my right.
Were they dust? Or bugs? Or something escorting me into the hallway...
Again, orbs are a controversial issue in the paranormal field, but I am just sharing what I catch.
But, that larger
one is pretty interesting, I know it must just be 'matrixng'...

This next picture was taken in my room during the convention. I noticed gle orbs in the shot. I
copied, enlarged, and inserted a larger clip in the picture to show the gel orbs. The one on the left is very interesting
as it looks to be more, or in motion. It is not a reflection of the brass on the fan or it would be a different color,
in my opinion. Let me know what you think.

This next picture was taken in the lobby, early hours of the morning. I noticed a pink orb (?) so I copied,
enlarged, and inserted it into the image for better review. Let me know what you think.

| Or Orb? |
This next picture was taken in the lobby as well. I noticed a couple gel orbs, a striated orb, and, what
looks to be a possible black orb to the far right. It is transparent and does not look, to me, that it could be a shadow
of the oranges on the table - or there would be more to it. Let me know what you think.

| Orbs and a Possible black Orb |
Upper left, in the rafters, looks to be in motion. Striated orb in the top center. In the dead center of the picture,
in the corner of the room, there are a number of gels, there is also another one in the lower center of the picture.
Orbs are not the actual evidence of a haunting, as I have stated before, but I find the gels to be compelling, and the timing
and location, and circumstances give cause to wonder.

What can I say. The next one is very obvious. Gel orbs are the brighter ones seeming to have substance.
I do not know if it means anything at all, but they are compelling to me. They do not seem to be a mere dust orb or
a flying bug...you be the judge.\

| Activity? |
The next photo is very unusual. This was at the set up for the seance with Amy. I did not use a
flash. It is very difficult to catch an orb in a shot without a flash. I noticed this purple light and copied,
enlarged, and inserted it for better review. From reviewing other photos of this area, I saw that there was not anything that
was on this wall that had any type of light. It is obvious, from the rest of the picture, that there is movement in
the camera, but still the actual shape and movement of the purple light caught my attention. Let me know what you think.

| Seance ~ Onset of Activity? |
I feel that I have gotten a number of strange captures in the lobby at the Glen Tavern Inn, in Santa Paula,
CA. I do not know IF they ARE anything, but I have to admit, they are strange...
I just provide what I capture
and leave the judging up to you.
I hope to add more images as I complete my review.
If YOU have captured anything
strange, I would love to see it.
