PICAYUNE, Miss. (UPI) -- A Mississippi man photographed taking nude photos of himself in a cemetery said he was practicing orb photography, taking pictures of circles of light at night.
The Pearl River County Sheriff's Department said Robert Hurst, 47, was charged with indecent exposure after he was photographed nude in the cemetery in October by a camera set up to capture vandals, The Picayune (Miss.) Item reported.
Chief Deputy Shane Tucker said the investigation determined Hurst was not involved in the vandalism.
Hurst said he was nude in the cemetery because he was practicing orb photography, the practice of capturing circles of light on camera at night. He said he was using his skin as a canvas to capture the orbs, which sometimes take on the appearances of human faces, the report said.
"I've got some great pictures, it's really fascinating," Hurst said.
