The following photos were taken between Sept. 8th and 11th, 2001 by the SOS Rescue Walk team that is walking from Washington DC to LA. On Sept. 10, the practitioners practiced in front of Manassas Museum, Virginia. A reporter came and interviewed practitioners and took photos of them (photos 2-4). Then, they walked along Route 28. On the way, they met local people and talked about why they were walking to California and introduced Falun Gong (photo 5 to photo 10).

The camera used was a Nikon Coolpix 990. These types of circles, glows, and upward flares (photo 6) have never occurred before on hundreds of previous photos taken with the same camera under various conditions. It was raining. You can see rain drops if you look really carefully. However, many visible big and small circles appear to be Faluns. Some circles are really bright. They have different levels of brightness. Also, it seems that some circles are heading in different directions. You can see the tail trails appearing in different positions. The photographer was in a car when shooting these pictures.
