Product Description

Synopsis

Ghosts have always fascinated humans, if only because they have offered the possibility of finding out more about life on the other side. Spirit Orbs, though are less known, Anthony Kevan Sercombe's "Spirit Orb Phenomena: Fact or Fiction?" is a pioneering work in this field and has been rated 5 star and has been awarded book of the month. Put simply, spirit orbs are images of humans which can be captured with camera. The writer takes the trouble of sharing how easily spirit orbs can be easily confused with reflected light on camera and other natural anomalies, however it made clear that spirit orbs images are definitely different to some tricks of the light. The many illustrations (98 colour photographs) offer, at least interesting if not compelling evidence of this phenomena. Readers will be able to judge for themselves what spirits orbs actually are. The author himself found spirit orbs appeared more, as he wrote the book and looking at the illustrations one is struck by sheer personality which comes through in certain images. Perhaps the most appealing fact about this phenomena is that all it takes is a digital camera for anyone to possibly capture such intriguing images.

Anthony Kevan Sercombe's book offers a fascinating introduction and explanations to a little known topic. Not only that, but readers will find it also provides a doorway into the mysterious world of the spiritual afterlife. This book is a publication, including an in depth look at the orb phenomena, concentrating on over 90 interesting colour photographs. (Note: the copy we were sent for review was a text only.doc, so it is difficult to comment further! ed). In particular, it debates whether, "spirit orbs" are images of those deceased, which can be captured with a camera. Kevan theorises on how easily spirit orbs can be confused with reflected light on cameras and other natural "anomalies" and that spirit orb images are different. It is an interesting look at a subject, which clearly requires much further debate and the amount of orbs we have in our collection certainly makes this of interest to us all! Though it perhaps in fairness, fails to offer any persuasive evidence to support the phenomena.

4.0 out of 5 stars Great Read 27 Jan 2006

The author of this book has obviously done a lot of research on the subject of orbs, but in saying that the book is clear and easy to read. There are some amazing photo's throughout the book, with explanations. He doesn't try and blind you with science so if you are new and want to learn more about this subject I highly recommend that you read this book. He doesn't give across his point of view on wether they are spiritual orbs (as I have read in other books)or not just leaves it up to you to decide at the end wether you believe in orbs or not, but it had me with camera in hand going round and just taking photo's in different parts of my house to see if I could capture some orbs...sadly I haven't yet but I am still going to try.
A good read and fantastic pictures with clear dialogue.
