I tend to wander in abandoned places and see what I can get myself into . This is a house that sits on the top of the bluffs. I found a hole in the door, tossed my camera bag in, and did an army crawl in the hole. While inside, it was totally dark. My only light was to carry my small point and shoot, and fire the flash off every few feet, to see where I was going. Some of these were shot in total darkness...specially the basement. One thing that I was amazed to see....every room had a chair. Kinda darksidish. The first toom I encountered was the kitchen. But...I really wanted to see the basement. This was total darkness.I could only lite the way with the flashes, and felt my way down.

These are VERY cool, and creepy at the same time.... you are VERY brave man ! I couldn't bare to be alone in that house if it was completely dark, for fear of bumping in to something or someone I didn't want to ! These are GREAT ! About the orb..... don't you believe in orbs being spirits ?

Thank you so much for your comments. Appreciate you taking the time. About the orb..... don't you believe in orbs being spirits ?
Hi Barngodess. Hmm...Im not sure yet. I believe something else exists, but Im not sure if it is in orbs. I know I was in this house alone, and in this basement, there were no windows, lights, or any breeze at all, so something caused that orb. I have been in places where I have felt a sudden change in temperature, specifically in another house, where I was ina cold basement, but felt a rush of warm air go by. I was not sure where it came from, as I was not near any door or window at the time. Also touring the old jail, I was in a cell, it was a warm day, but I felt a cold rush fall over me from above. This was in a cement enclosed solitary confinement cell where the only opening was where the bars were. Sorry...rambling on here. :  I guess you could say, Im a half an half believer.

I like the third shot a lot. I give you props on even going into a place like this. I'm guessing the orb is a reflection off of something metal in the basement. That is typical when you use flash in a totally dark room.
