If the sun is behind the stone that means the camera was shooting into it. Likely camera's flash. In any case, I would never in 100 years come up with a child or an angel or anything of vaguely human form from the shape; it would be very very disproportionate, wouldn't it? I thought most "ghost photos" depicted ghosts, or the beginning of ghosts, around life-size, usually standing next to or behing something, not floating aimlessly in front of something & shrunk to the size of someone's head. ----- Original Message ----- From: "wcook" <wcook@rogers.com> To: <can-ont-simcoe@rootsweb.com> Sent: Sunday, September 09, 2007 9:45 PM Subject: Re: [CAN-ONT-SIMCOE] Ghost picture? > The first picture was enhanced and cropped in order to try and read it > better, you have to understand that this particular type of monument are > one > of the hardest to photograph because they wear very easy because of the > rain > and snow.
