Send me your Ghost Photos and I’ll tell you why you’re wrong!

But that would be CRASS and, I’m sure, would brand me as being as “narrow-minded” as the people who BELIEVE in ghosts…
Let alone as “narrow-minded” as the people who BELIEVE you can actually capture the image of a departed soul (spirit, phantom, shade or astral-projection) in a photo (or on film, video… or in a sound recording for that matter).
Enough of that though – let me get to my point.
I love the idea of ghost photos – I would LOVE to see the supposed photographic proof of mind-blowing concepts like there IS life after death and that the continuance of consciousness DOES go beyond the grave – but they are always SO DISAPPOINTING!
All you get is a continuous parade of obvious fakes and miss-identified out of focus dust particles, insects, camera straps, wisps of hair, breath vapor, smoke and light pollution – not forgetting the numerous accidental, intentional or coincidental reflections, projections, double exposures and bodily intrusions… I could go on but what’s the point
Is there not ONE photo out there that at least looks like it might be the apparition of a terrifying phantasmal disembodied presence grimly haunting the site of its untimely death… NO?
There are countless examples of pathetic “orbs” of light – for which there are many more likely explanations – but not one photo that actually looks like what I would consider to be a “real” ghost.
So – come on people – send me some photos or footage… and please, if you can – make them as SCARY or Spooky as you can… other wise it doesn’t deserve the title Ghost Photo!
Send images or video to inquiries@harbinger451.com with Ghost Photo in the subject line. If I get a good response I’ll show them in this blog to begin with but I ultimately intend to start a webpage dedicated to the Art of taking a good Ghost Photo… for that is what it is, an Art.
Ghosts are a figment of the human imagination so can not be photographed… but that’s just MY opinion. Prove me wrong and send me some convincing evidence.

Its like you learn my thoughts! You seem to grasp so much about this, such as you wrote the guide in it or something. I feel that you can do with a few p.c. to force the message home a little bit, however other than that, this is excellent blog. An excellent read. I will certainly be back.

The only ghost that this is a photo of is the ghost of some spaghetti… or maybe even some cheese strings!
Seriously though – its more likely to be a few strands of hair or fiber very close to the lens – so totally out of focus – and then lit by the camera’s flash. It could possibly be breath (if it was very cold at the time) or smoke – but I think it has too much substance for that.
The one thing I think it definitely isn’t – is a photo of the disembodied spirit of a dead person – but that’s just my opinion.
