As much as I would love for these photos to be true, I have also learned that it is good to be a skeptic. My question is what do you think of websites that present such photos? do you think they are all fraud or is there some truth to it or whatt?

here (http://www.moonsmuses.com/fae.html) is an example. I found it while looking for faery/gnome/spirit, etc. lore for a school project I'm doing.

I mean, I think it would be easy to use your picture editing program and make those things. And besides, how could the average camera pick up something like that? Wouldn't that be left to your spiritual "psychicness"? I can understand if you had an aura camera taking such pictures, but even still, how could they come out so clear and bright?

Some of the example photos on the page you provided, I wouldn't consider twice. However, as skeptic as I claim to be, it is said that one has to believe it to see it. Most of these pictures can be explained as deliberate forgeries, techinical failures or mere coincidences. But especially with failures and coincidences, several explanations are possible. The fact that skeptic explanations might hold ground, doesn't rule out the more magical explanations.

i personally think a lot of photos out there are fakes.. but.. i do believe that you can catch some faeries on camera, because i have myself... i just don't think you can go out and hunt them down.. and ask for their picture.. :) .. they just happen.. :)

Well, It would take me about 10 seconds to do that in photoshop. No faeries involved.
