I received a lot of interest in an earlier post on Orbs (We Need To Talk) from hundreds of viewers just after posting it. Since I have many pictures stored on my external hard drive, I thought I'd pick a few to display in this post. I have enlarged and enhanced most of these for contrast purposes. I am not claiming that they are anything more than natural phenomena caused by dust in the air or a camera's flash. Yet they intrigued me as they began to appear shortly after I bought a digital camera several years ago. For whatever reason, they just kept showing up whenever I intended them. This hasn't happened since I stopped looking for them.
Strangely, it seemed they would only show up when I intended them, which, on the surface, would seem to take us beyond the realm of natural explanation, although I have no scientific proof that they're anything other than natural.
Above, the bright picture was simply taken in the night sky without any light around, that I recall. I just felt motivated to do it at the moment. What I like about it is that it seems to throb as I focus on it (especially after the second mug of beer or glass of Scotch). Also, I keep seeing interesting images in the centre that almost seem mystical to me. If this light evokes anything in your imagination, please tell me what you see.
Interestingly, I recently read something that inspired me about the light in us: You pass from a final illusion of beauty to Beauty that cannot be contained by illusion. You pass from form, which reflects Light, to Light, which shines into form. The (Holy Spirit's Interpretation of the New Testament, page 305 NTI). There's a lot of meaning contained in these words that speak to me of enlightenment. Not to say any of that has to do with orbs, but then...
Anyway, if you have any thoughts on this, I'd like to hear them too, in the Comments section.
Now, for your more everyday, run-of-the-mill orbs, I've included several more. The strobe light orb below is in my livingroom. Interestingly, I had just been sitting on the couch. I have no idea why I felt compelled to get up and take a picture where I was sitting. Who knows what I was thinking while sitting there; perhaps some exotic thought or changing the oil in my car.

Here's another in the same vicinity. It's where I spend most of my time while reading or writing at home. Guess they like to keep me company since I live alone.

I don't recall where I took either of these above or below.

The orb pic below was taken at my cabin. With all its bright colours, I thought I would include it here. Again, this is a colour enhancement to improve contrast. But then, nothing appeared until I took a picture of the trees from my cabin deck.

The pic below shows an orb over my friend Jackie's head. When I told her I had recently been getting orb pictures, she wanted to see if we could get one of her with an orb, too. And so I did. In fact, immediately. She wasn't disappointed or even surprised.

I captured these below at a party in my cabin with friends who were skeptical about my strange orb hunting. And so the orbs and I decided we would show them a thing or two. It seemed I got something every time I took a picture that night. The friends were amused but not convinced. After all, there likely was a lot of dust in the air, not to mention cigar smoke.
The enhanced pics are the two that I caught in the single picture below.
I caught this one beside my friend Lawrence at the cabin. They must like the way he thinks, since I got a couple of others positioned directly over his head. Lawrence was a deeply spiritual, highly conscious 'saint' who passed away in 2024.

That's all for now. Perhaps I'll add more later when I have time. Again, I'm not representing, proposing or postulating anything about this phenomenon. But since orbs show up in Elysium's Passage, I have included some of them in this blog post to create a little interest.
My assumption is that there is a natural explanation. It's just that I'm not always so sure what is supposed to constitute 'natural' -- only that which is can be subject to the scientific method? Don't think so! In fact, there are other dimensions that many scientists acknowledge as existing, such as in the 'Superstring Theorem.
But to be on the safe side, I suspect that all these photos can be explained away scientifically in terms of what optical illusions a camera lens can create. Also, I've done enough experimenting to reach this conclusion.

THE SUMMIT is the first in a series of seven Elysium’s Passage narrations regarding a young British philosopher named James Phillips who finds himself living in an altered state of reality while still remaining on earth.
After experiencing a near-fatal fall while climbing to the summit of a remote mountain in the Andes, James awakens in a new dimension. He soon encounters two mysterious beings who provide him with a very different perspective on the nature of his existence. Over the next year, before his body recovers from the coma, he is challenged to re-examine his understanding of life’s meaning and purpose far beyond anything he previously believed or could believe.
An engaging and sometimes surreal adventure with intimations of impending romance, the narrative explores the most important questions about life, death, reality and our ultimate destiny.
The Plains of Elysium (Champs-Élysées) was described by Homer, Hesiod, Virgil and many other poets as the paradisiac afterlife realm reserved for heroes. As the title suggests, this is about a journey through a passage that leads towards Elysium’s exciting realm of existence.

1. The Ascent is the first novel in the Chronicles of Elysium’s Passage that’s foundational to everything that happens in the following narratives, which embark on an adventure that will surprise and delight the reader like no other book.
It all begins with an extreme adventure after climbing a remote and challenging mountain somewhere in the Andean Mountains. Just as James, the protagonist, is about to reach the mountain summit, he falls into an abyss that leaves him in a coma for almost a year.
After being airlifted by a forestry helicopter and flown back to London, where his body remains for almost a year, eventually, he learns it was not him but his body that was rescued. Several days later, without understanding what happened, he continues to climb to the Summit in an alternate dimension of higher consciousness.
Fortuitously, he meets two adventurers on the summit ridge who are no longer of this world. After that, his surreal life leads him to several new adventures in the subsequent chronicles that include a rich mix of adventure, romance, and fantasy, along with profound discussions of philosophy, spirituality and the afterlife.
2. The Summit, the second novel in the Chronicles of Elysium’s Passage, carries on where James, the narrator and protagonist, is taught more about a multidimensional reality that he finds difficult to comprehend.
Not only does he discover he’s not as clever as he imagined, but his off-world companions on the Summit demonstrate that much of what he believed about life was not just parochial but wrong. At first, he finds this difficult to comprehend since their teachings are contrary to his limited understanding of non-material reality.
After being tricked into teleporting off a ledge where he was trapped, James becomes aware of the new reality that makes him capable of far more adventures than could have ever been experienced previously in his physical body back home.
Now, if only he could win over the only woman in this life who matters, the nurse on the other side of the veil, who continually demonstrates her unconditional love toward his healing.
This book may open the reader’s eyes to a much vaster reality than most people are aware of. As with the other Chronicles, it discusses philosophy, the spiritual afterlife, and what might seem like fantasy.
3. Quantum Leaps is the third novel in Chronicles of Elysium’s Passage, where James, the philosopher-protagonist, teleports back to London to visit his body and make contact with the special nurse taking care of it in his absence. Immediately, he feels an inexplicable spiritual bond with her for reasons he remains unaware of.
Now aroused by a renewed interest in matters of love, the beginnings of a relationship begin to emerge as he attempts to reach across the chasm of their worlds. But it’s not until the fifth novel, Mystical Romance, that he encounters her in a way that he finds difficult to believe.
However, before that can happen, there is much about his failed relationships that must be resolved before he is ready to move forward in his new life in Elysium’s Passage. It is during this time he christens his comatose body as the fall guy since it took the fall for him down the abyss so he could learn the lessons he’s now learning.
That will be the next focus of his life, where in his next Surreal Adventures, he is given virtual lessons to release many of his past beliefs about life.
4. Surreal Adventures is the fourth novel in the Chronicles of Elysium’s Passage, which finds James, the protagonist and narrator, escorted by his companions to a remote South Pacific Island, where he is left to reflect on what he’s learned.
During the next forty days, he battles the demons of his past as he works through some rather painful issues from his early youth. Here, in a tropical storm, he encounters an eery suspended spectre of the one he loved yet still resents for abandoning him as a child.
After this, he achieves peace of mind and is ready to return to his lodge to join his off-world companions on the Andes summit. However, just when it seemed things couldn’t get any stranger, a sixteenth-century sea captain sails his ancient ‘ghost’ ship onto the beach. Together, they sail off on a mystical ocean voyage to a couple of virtual islands supposedly in the South Pacific, where he witnesses and, at times, participates in several important life lessons.
Near the end, these encounters help prepare him for a new challenge within the interior of a mountain, where he falls deep into a dark tomb of fear. After being rescued by a mysterious stranger wielding his Excaliber, he continues on to where his life is about to be transformed in the following chronicle, Mystical Romance.
5. Mystical Romance is the fifth chronicle in Elysium’s Passage, which will surprise the reader with a romantic twist on how love is expressed in higher realms. From this lofty perspective, everything about intimacy is understood as within, so without.
After escaping his tomb, James, the narrator and protagonist, makes his way through a maze of tunnels until he arrives at a large oak door, which he opens with the golden key he had been given. There, he steps into Elysium’s Passage’s Great Hall, where his life and recent achievements are celebrated now that his eyes have been opened to perceive a fascinating interior world of wonderment… and romance.
To say more might risk diminishing the multitude of delightful surprises as circumstances begin to open to The Elixir, where James is about to re-enter his earthly body’s existence.
6. The Elixir is the sixth chronicle of the Elysium’s Passage series that prepares James, the narrator-protagonist, to awaken and return to his body in London. Before that can happen, however, his off-worlder friend presents a mysterious equation enshrouded with a light code frequency that will stimulate multidimensional DNA strands within him.
Much of this narration is centred in London, where his nurse unknowingly becomes involved in how the Elixir’s equation finds its way from a taxi cab driver to higher echelons of science. There are many twists in how she unwittingly brings the Elixir to the attention of mathematicians and physicists, after which they eventually discover how to code the equation into a laser ray to stimulate his fall-guy body into full consciousness.
Ostensibly a new Adam, he is destined to return humanity to a higher multidimensional existence. How this happens is filled with intrigue, as is his shocking return to his earthly body.
7. The Return is the seventh and last chronicle in the series where James, the narrator and protagonist, has re-emerged from Elysium’s Passage as he readjusts to life in the third dimension. Many of the events experienced in the previous novels are tied together in an exciting, fast-moving, action-packed narrative over several countries.
At first, it seems all memories have been lost, with his fall guy’s brain not being aware of what happened to him while in his coma. As a consequence, it takes a while for him to be convinced he was out of his earthly body for almost a year.
Through some rather unexpected events and evidence, along with his girlfriend’s urging, he is brought to an awareness of much of what occurred. It takes a while for his mind to catch up with the changes made in his heart during his stay in the alternate realm. But after experiencing several harsh realities, he discovers what he became within while out of his body. Gradually, he comes to understand the many challenges that lie ahead for him in fulfilling his future mission on Earth.
This book is filled with adventure, romance and personal intrigue that ties together all six previous narratives of the Elysium’s Passage series.
