Weird by Bezay

Was taking a silhouette shot of a scissor tail fly catcher at the Fort Worth Japanese Gardens October 24th 2008 ran off 6-8 quick shots never saw anything through the viewfinder. A few days later I find this blurb in the upper right hand corner and ran it through as atested by the various blown up variations. I’ve shown it to numerous people, many of them in the military and 1 an American airlines pilot with 50,000 logged miles, there’s many an opinion and theory, but the most common one is that it’s part of a secret government op called Skunkworks and in particular called The Aurora Project, which according to (and you can check this out at Wikipedia or a number of other sites) is the result of a reverse-engineered captured Alien craft, sounds far fetched but I never rule anything out. anyways, opinions and speculations are welcome.

Smoke From the Chimneys? by Bev Woodman

BEST SHOWN LARGE This is yet another image from the “Haunted House” series. This shot was from the yard looking across the roof line and chimneys of this old abandonded house. Its not a terrific image but does show yet another mystery – this house has been abandonded for years, no one lives there, the fire places are cold so why does the front kitchen image show a slight smoke or vapour haze and the rear loungeroom chimney show a definite blue smoke haze. These fire places had not been lit for a looooong time so how do I explain the smoke? /

Taken with Kodak Z760 in Bryson City, NC / This was taken two days before I took the other / orb picture posted this one has the face of a dog in it.
Orbs compared to Dust by Kale E.

These images belong to: / / But he is very busy so I have made this for our new group. The point of this is they were all taken on the same camera at about the same location (Western State Sanitarium ruins in Lakewood Washington) which have been bulldozed since Other hosts: / and / Were also there that night. Anyone I know, including myself, who has seen an orb up close IRL, will explain them as a tiny round thing of whatever color (most common seems to be white or black) flying about the room. Maybe a bit smaller then pea size. But a lot bigger then dust. It makes sense why they reflect the flash… just like dust, just in a more epic manner.
Ghostly Mist and Orbs - Coalhouse Fort Essex by Arrowman

/ Coalhouse Fort is haunted. This shot was taken in the underground tunnels, in pitch darkness. At the time this shot was taken, footsteps could be heard elsewhere in the tunnels!! Can you see a face in the cloud of mist. In the next shot, 2 seconds later this mist was not there ! / TURN ON P.C. Speakers for a view of MOST HAUNTED – COALHOSE FORT

Ghosts of Empire Mine by stephaniek

This room was perfectly preserved from 1956 when they closed the Mine and locked the doors for the last time! It was where they weighed and measured the gold. I see a ghost of Miners past…........................The Empire Mine is the site of the oldest, largest, and richest gold mine in California. From 1850 to its closing in 1956, it produced 5.8 million ounces of gold.This 5.8 million ounces of gold would fill a box 7 feet on each side. It is estimated that this represented only 20% of the available gold…80% remains. The Park contains many of the original mine buildings, the owners cottage and the restored gardens and grounds as well as the entrance to 367 miles (the equivalent of a round trip from Grass Valley to San Jose) of abandoned and flooded shafts and tunnels. The park consists of 845 acres of forested back country and 12 miles of trails for hikers, bikers and horseback riders. / Grass Valley, California. /

The Veil was lifted by linmarie

this is my daughters wedding 08/11/2001. photo was taken with a 35mm camera,, when I picked them up at photo place,, I almost had a heart attack when I saw this one,, you see the grooms grandfather died three days before the wedding, they postponed his funeral arrangements until after the wedding, I feel this is his grandfathers ghost watching over them. also very ironic the grooms head is turned at that moment towards the ghostly mist.. this misty ghost also appeared on the negative, but the before and after pic of this one had nothing,, even though they were same angle and subject shots,, I have numerous people look at this and claim, this is not flash or window, or light related,, they feel I captured a spirit,, whether it be his grandfather or another ghostly visitor of the Roman Catholic Church,, St. Marys Church,, upstate NY—- / Also, I was pregnant for my daughter in 1979,, my fathers first grandchild,, he died of cancer 8mons. before she was born,, his memorial service was held in this same church.I would love too hear everyone’s thoughts and comments on what you see and think about this photo,, thanks too all who look!!!
Ghosts in the Room by Misty Lackey

Wesser Creek, NC Do you see the two faces on the right??
O.o by Jayca

Took this one last night at Youth Group. Weird things have a habit of showing up there lately. / This is completely as-is. Seriously, I just uploaded it to my computer less than10 minutes ago. I didn’t see it when I took the pic because my camera is messed up and I can only take pictures; I can’t view them right now. / My first thought when I saw this (after “whoa…”) was “hair.” I don’t think anyone was standing in my way when I took this…I’m not sure, though. My other idea is an effect from the light, but…I dunno. I don’t think so. / Any other suggestions?

Youth Group by Jayca

My church’s Youth Group meets on Wednesday nights. The weather was bad this past Wednesday, and the actual “meeting” was cancelled. However, some of the teens showed up, as did my brother and I (we’re not teens—we’re the college-age role models lol). So, after church, our priest talked the small group of us that actually showed up into going out to eat with him. lol / Apparently, we weren’t the only ones that showed up that night. There are a lot of pics with a mist similar to this one.
Untitled by Jayca

I couldn’t think of a title for this. This is a picture of my car (aka Babydoll) after a wreck. She was totalled, but I got away with a cut in the back of my head. I was extremely lucky. I’ll post more pictures of the aftermath later; I managed to take pictures a few days later when my mom took me to see her. The reason for posting this picture is because of the arc of light on the left side. There’s no reason for that to be in that particular spot; the sun was to my right, so there was no light source from the left. A lot of people who saw the picture of the wreck in the local paper told me how lucky I was. A few people who knew me a little better told me I had a lot of angels “or something” protecting me. I can think of a few things that I know are protecting me, but they don’t usually show up in pictures, and never like this.
What's going on in YOUR bedroom? by Jayca

I can’t think of a reason for the darkening in the bottom right-hand corner to be there. I had all the lights off, all lights came from my flash; I took the picture over my shoulder, and there’s no way it’s my shadow. I know that there are a few spirits in my house, and particularly in my bedroom. But this particular picture messes with my head a little bit.
