I am sorry, but to me it looks like you had water droplets on your lens. I would love to believe this but.....it's a nice story....

Ok..Call me crazy, but I believe you..I think they are there..Love the "face" in the last 4 pics.

This is the type of topic that asks you "do you believe?" Although I am aware that as an artist, I may have a healthy imagination. And quite possibly, this may be something as simple to explain as the images your mind lets you see when you look at a cloud. But I cant deny that there have been times that Ive felt the presence of some unexplainable energy, much deeper than merely the "thought" of a person close to us who has passed on. My son warned me about mentioning this to anyone for fear of being called crazy, but maybe its just a matter of sharpening our senses. Many people have claimed in their lifetimes of feeling the presence of a loved one whos gone. Whether we hold on to their spirit for comfort or if perhaps weve momentarily touched on a spec of the vast "unused" portion of our brain, allowing us to feel or see beyond what is considered normal, sane or believable. Who knows? In any event, I felt it a worthy topic to post.

By the way, my sister emailed Lisa Williams with the photos. She replied "I think its fabulous that your sister has so many energies that want to be in the garden, it shows that she has created a garden filled with love and understanding and honoring to the other dimensions that are around."

I realize this is getting pretty far off the forum topic, but I thought this link from the Fox News website was interesting. Be sure and check out the videos under the photo 'Ghost on Camera?'.

I wonder what would happen if you took a video of your pond and surrounding areas...

I can't see the enlarged pictures clearly enough to see what others are seeing, but if it is similar to what I saw on tv last week (maybe it was National Geographic channel)the end result of their study looked like smiley faces.

The paranormal debunker said that the orbs are often dust in the air. He purposely stirred up dust by stomping on a carpet then took pictures. The resulting pictures looked like "orbs" - paranormal ghostly round spots.

He enlarged them a little and some appeared to have faces. When he enlarged even more, they all had smiley faces on them. He said he doesn't know what causes the appearance of smiley faces, but it always happens that way in test after test.

So... I don't know what was in the pictures you took. I would like to think it is fairies making themselves known to you. Or it could be something like what the paranormal bebunker showed on tv.

Check around in your area. A paranormal investigator might be interested in setting up his/her equipment in your fairy garden.

Good Luck,
Anne

I find your little pond enchanting, and maybe other beings/spirits do too.

I think the pictures are fascinating. I can definitely see the "faces".

I love your fairy pond.

I am not able to see the faces in your pics because everything but the outline is black. I do believe the orbs are spirits.

I don't know if you have ever watched the Ghost Whisperer that is on Friday nights starring Jennifer Love Hewitt. I had the woman psychic whom the story is based on, Maryann Winkowski, at my house to send several spirits into the light. There were three of them who wouldn't leave my dog alone. My dog hated the new house since the day we moved in. He was sick all the time and refused to go upstairs. Whenever I was upstairs he would lay at the bottom of them and whine. He wouldn't even look up the stairs. Before her visit, she did a phone interview with me and described the layout of my upstairs to a "t". She told me there was a room at the top of the stairs where there were blankets piled on a shelf, and she could see wrapping paper and two window fans. OMG, she was describing my closet. She said that is where the spirits were staying. That would explain why it sounded like someone banged on the door everytime I walked by. I had some weird things happen before she arrived. I had bought four koi during the winter and kept them in a rubbermaid tub in the basement. When I took a pic of them there were five fish in the pic. Almost every pic I took in or out of the house contained orbs. One pic I took had a bright white column of light in my upstairs computer room. She told me I actually had a portal in that room where spirits crossing over could access the light. She told me she would remove it if I wanted her to. I told her I didn't care how many spirits went through my house to get to the light as long as they didn't bother me. Once she crossed the three spirits over my dog was fine. He wasn't sick anymore and was so happy he could go upstairs with me. As a matter of fact he lived upstairs after Maryann's visit.

Here are the pics of the fish I took. In the first one you can see three of the four fish.

This is the pic of the fifth fish. In the upper right hand corner you will notice the four fish I bought. In the lower left hand corner you will see the fifth fish. Maryann couldn't explain it. She said if I wanted her to, she would send the pic and negative to Quantico to have it certified that it was not an altered photo.

This picture was taken after Maryann's visit. I was trying to capture a picture of a hummingbird at my feeder. You can imagine my surprise when I saw this picture of a ghost creature looking in my window (middle right side of the picture).

Here is a link to Maryann's website. You can click on the picture link under "Your Input" and see pictures of actual orbs and spirits. My pic of the creature looking in my window is on her website also.
