Just for fun I am throwing this out. How many have stange things like figures or other things which show up in your photos? I took this image a few years ago of an old covered bridge. It was done with digital at the time. To the right of the bridge there is a figure of some kind. It looks like someone is standing there with their hand on their hip. I know it is there I just want to know if you see it. I never noticed it until I made an 8+10 print for someone. Monte Johnson.
Yes, I saw it -- but I had to zoom in quite a bit to do so.
Monte, I think you have a very special camera there -- you need to be featured on "Ghost Hunters" (or maybe "GhostBusters")

Ed,
Glad you saw it and I am not the only one. I have had this happen a couple of times. I shot this bridge also with film and after that it was burned down by someone three days later. Monte Johnson.
Omigod! It's.....ELVIS!
Could be Bill,
I just find it interesting how strange htings happen when taking pictures. I loved this old bridge. Only wish so low life had not burned it down. Monte Johnson.
Actually, my experience has been just the opposite. I know that the camera often records what the mind chooses to ignore, often resulting in the later exclamation, "How the hell did THAT get in there? But it also true that what the mind sees, the camera sometimes fails to record. For instance: In the Chiricahua National Monument in southeastern Arizona, there's a legend of a rocky hill that is supposed to look like the head of a sleeping Cochise. And if you look at it in the right light, it's there. But, no matter how many shots you take, even in the right light, it doesn't come out in the print. I guess some myths require three-dimensional vision, others (like your shot) only two dimensions. Damn shame about the bridge, by the way....
sorry monte. i didn't see anything. just a bridge and grass. i think sometimes people think they see things that aren't really there. as for the otheres that saw your picture, i think they were wanting to believe that you caught something on film. don't doubt me though, i am a believer of all things strange or unusual. and i definitely believe in ghosts. i just don't see one in this picture.
