Have you heard something that has gone bump in the night or had an uneasy feeling? Just to grab the camera and take random pictures, of poor quality! If so keep reading to capture better pictures
Here are some basic suggestions to avoid contamination when taking a picture:
- Make sure the lens on the camera is clean and lint free.
- Avoid getting camera straps, hair, smoke or breath across the viewfinder.
- Take three pictures in a row so you have a base image and two other images to compare.
- Note the environmental conditions, humidity, moisture in the air etc.
- Have your camera show its time and date.
- When possible turn on all the lights and take a panoramic picture of the area in question so you have something to compare. ( individual overlapping images to make up a panoramic view of the area)
- Put your camera on a tripod or use the self-timer and a stable surface to take a picture.
- Keep track if you use a Flash or include Exif data
- The very best picture to upload would be a full-sized, original, untouched copy of the image for us to analyze.
- Don't spend too much time on any individual picture.
- Be sure to note the whole content within the picture, don't just focus on what might have caught your attention.
- Look at every picture with an open nonparanormal mind before looking to the paranormal.
- Share your pictures with (US) for peer review.
- Be objective
