Shadow Man Appartion - Close Up

Shadow Man Appartion #2

This is Janet I am writing back to you in regards of the photo that I took in Europe. The photo was taken some time back when my husband and I were on vacation visiting some old castles in Scandinavia. We went from town to town marveling at the beauty of the country. As we were visiting a castle outside, we felt a little out of place. Often we felt as if people were walking right in front of us, yet no one was within miles of us. Even though we felt quit uncomfortable we enjoyed the beauty of the ruins. I took several pictures and upon developing them noticed the strange figures present. Never before in my life have I believed in Ghosts but after viewing the photos I ask my self what else could this be? I am aware that many
people wont believe that the photo I sent you is real, but that is OK. Maybe it is best that some people do not believe. I know that I my self would never have before this occasion. I am 65 years old and have seen allot of things in my life but never have I seen anything like this.

Hi Janet,

"We have had a chance to analyze your photo and frankly, it appears to good to be true.  If this is a true ghost image than it is the greatest daylight haunting image in history.  After careful re-examination It is my opinion that this image looks as if it was manipulated by a very advanced photoshop type program because it is so crisp   and art nouveau, which is a style of art and photography such is in graphic art images used in  post cards and greeting cards.

No offense but, It's too artsy to be real. I am going to post it anyway with this
email opinion as a counterpoint  to your info which by the way appeared VERY SINCERE.

When I enlarge it I could even see the eye color. The brown pixels were due to the color   of the rock in the castle wall behind the eye socket shadow.

I'd like to see the other images just out of curiosity.

Be prepared for controversy ( on the site only) because even if it is real as you have suggested,  no one will believe it.

This image will be popular and you'll probably win the "Photo Award Of Excellence."

Thanks for the strange photo."
