A few days ago I was at orthodoxphotos.com and checked out the section for Orthodox Miracles... I noticed something though...

Apparently the one taking the photos doesn't know that is something cameras do that in low lighting if you move the camera :)

However I do believe the other "miracles" are true, like the Crosses in the sky...

I don't know about that. The rest of the photo looks pretty staple. It is just the light that is very long. It might not be just the exposure. I ll practice with my camera and see what happens if I try to get that effect. I ll use a candle, slow shutter speed and move the camera down while taking the photo.

Trust me, i've done it hundreds of times, especially when photoing at night...
Example of this:

Oh yes I know what you mean. I have done it too. But in your photo example the cars are moving. It the other photo the candles surely didnt move all that distance from top to the hands of their holders.

The shutter must have stuck open. The flash caused the people to appear in sharp focus with no ghosting (not enough light after the flash had extinguished), while the light sources (candles) left trails as the camera was lowered.
