The Romantic Ghosts
at the Depot, Katy, TX

He's a man in a brown suit with lapels trimmed in braid. She's taller than him, especially with the tall, perky hat that she wears. And, she holds his arm as they stroll around the depot.

I've sensed this couple before, but their images weren't so clear in my mind... or in photos.

I like to think that they're remembering a time when they took a romantic journey by train, perhaps to some still-wild part of the Southwest, or a second honeymoon in Kansas City or Chicago, during a more genteel era.

This couple showed up as twin orbs, repeatedly, in my photos around the depot. Here's one of several photos with the twin orbs, taken over the railcar by the Katy depot:

Of course, I'd suspect that something was reflecting dual orbs, or perhaps a lens flare. When I see orbs in a straight line, I almost always think, "Lens flare."

However, at the depot building at least 20 feet away, my photos included the same twin orbs. Here's another photo of them:

(These photos are grainy because--too late--I discovered that I was taking the pictures at a film speed of 100.)

However, they weren't the only ghosts enjoying the weather at the start of the new year. See far more orbs in Ghost Orbs in Katy, TX (1/06)
