I found this fascinating story (with pictures) online and had to share it. I firmly believe that each and every temple on GOD's earth has the exact same protective force-field, we just can't see it. I was told by a friend, who had first-person knowledge of a certain LDS Temple during construction, how many individuals tried to steal material and deface the temple but were stopped by some very big men in white robes. I have a testimony of things that can only be seen with 'spiritual eyes'. I believe we are surrounded by this kind of stuff constantly.
Protection of the Temple:
President Schmutz of the Cebu, Philippines Mission who finished his service in July 2014 told the following story to Elder and Sister Cropper of the same mission - A non-member woman who was visiting Cebu, stood by her high rise hotel window shooting pictures of the city view. She saw the temple not too far off and took several photos. After looking at the pictures in the camera she was very puzzled. The camera was showing something that she couldn’t see herself. She went back to the balcony that evening and took some more pictures, and they reflected the same phenomenon.
She was so intrigued she set out to find the building. She showed up at the mission office on the temple grounds and asked about the building and what it is used for. She then produced her camera and showed Sister Ernstrom, the mission office manager, the photos she had taken.
There were a couple dozen photos of the temple, some close ups, some at night, some day, and in every photo there was a visible bubble over the temple, like a rainbow without the colors. In some, the bubble was large, others just barely covering the statue Moroni. In a few there was a double layer. It was astonishing, and though it may be explicable through some sort of law of physics or light refraction process, it was nonetheless very thought provoking. Sister Ernstrom copied the pictures onto her computer and Elder Cropper got a copy of the pictures.

This past Monday my sister and I took my parents on our annual 'Place the flowers on the grave for Memorial Day' trip to Ogden, Utah and Teton, Idaho. I took this picture of my father, Lloyd, standing near his parents grave. Later, when I looked at the two pictures I took, I notice a similar rainbow halo around where they are both laid to rest. It wasn't there when I took the picture (and it's probably because of the way the run was shining through the trees), nonetheless, it still was cool the way it highlighted them exactly in both pictures.
