Many have asked me what a Sprite was and I was never able to find a picture to show them and as you can tell it is hard to put into words what they are....flowerforyou

There are Sprites that are like Fairies that live between the Heavens and the Earth....Just like these Sprites do....

They did a show on things like sticks and waves, etc. showing up on photos and when they also had a faster camera alongside the regular ones, they turned out to be moths and stuff, that people never even saw in the first place. Kinda takes the mystery out of it doesn't?
