I was at Battery Clark on 1/12/12 and to find my way in the black passages I used my camera for light - that evening I discovered a bright Orb - the next day, with flashlights and well charged camera I again explored the passages - in particuar the one I saw the Orb - I began talking to whoever occupied that area and started taking photos - by the time I got to the end of the passage to the huge Cross painted on the wall at the end, I was capturing many bright colored Orbs, including white, orange, red and green. My friend, dog and myself took near 100 photos there and into the ajoining passage on out - I caught Orbs around my pooch, my friend - some as bright as lightbulbs - the first day I was there I heard of sound of clanking on metal - But the next day we heard 3 loud sharp cracking sounds right near us - like someone firing a rifle, a firecracker, or the sharp crack of a whip. I now have a small tape recorder and will go back soon and try to get the sounds and/or voices on tape. Thanks for allowing me to tell my story.
