[yowiedan]

theses pics are from a friend who is reliable and they haven't been photo shopped in anyway.the pics were taken in early morning at a party a friend was at.only a few guests left.pics were taken around 3am.in both pics there is only 3 people in the pics,two were trying to get a totally drunk mate off the chair,he looks like he's heavy so i was told took some effort and two pics were taken while it was done.in the first pic the ghost is on the right hand side and the second pic the ghost is behind then just the head showing.no other people were there other then my friend who took the pics and his brother and two others.let me know what u think of the pics.

What was the exact date and do you have a time of night? What camera was used? What kind and where were the lights in the yard and what direction were they shining ( if they were a spot light)? What happened to using the flash for night shots?

When you present stuff like this then please provide all the technical information as well.

What we have here is a grainy photo of what looks like four people and a secondhand statement from people whose recollection of events was, given your statement, no doubt impaired by alcohol consumption. With all due respect, what do you really expect us to think!

Funny how the 'ghost' just so happens to look like he is doing what the rest of them are doing.. first pic he is drinking.. second pic he is taking a piss behind the fence

ie. Fourth person there

Seriously lol... agree with Andrew, what else do you expect us to think... looks like a fourth person, acting like a fourth person = its a fourth person

No offence but you cant be serious lol

[horserider]

In fact there are 5 people... 2nd pic looks like a female with lighter hair lol.. so maybe not taking a piss, but possibly taking THE piss?

[googe]

The first pic looks like the ghosty image is holding the guy beside him's hand. Have to agree horerider, the second one is a woman.

as i said i only got the pics from a friend who ive known for ages and very reliable and doesnt believe in ghosts and said he didnt know how to explain the extra people in the photos as it was just him and his brother and 2 other guys left at the party around 3am.i can only go on his word.i dont have any info on what camera it was taken with.just put these pics up to see what anyone thought didnt know i the critics would hound me lol.just a few pics put up to see if what was in those pics could be worked out thats all.thanks for all the angry comments.

yowiedan;

Suggest to your friend they reformat the SD card before the next outing. This looks like a bad overwrite to me. The lack of detail in the new image fails to overwrite the left over artifacts from the previous exposures....

Nothing against your friend, or his equipment choices but it's a common issue and often overlooked if ya don't/can't remember the previous deleted frames.

Cheers

thanks for all the angry comments.

No anger Yowiedan. Just asking you to look at these things more objectively. As Nopolys said there are other explanations. Apply Occam's razor. "It is a principle urging one to select among competing hypotheses the one which makes the fewest assumptions and thereby offers the simplest explanation of the effect."

We all get caught now and then by leaping to the first conclusion that comes to mind without looking at all possibilities and testing each of them.

If you look really closely at the face of the anomalous figure you can see that the hairline, forehead and general shape of the face is almost identical to the very real individual standing next to it. The hairline and forehead in particular are in my opinion the exact shape.... so yes, probably some sort of camera effect? I would be interested to see whether any photos were previously taken that night of the individual in question holding a stubbie? I think NoPolys could be spot on with his suggestion.

Also, lets try and keep the comments positive. Forum members should feel free to put up their experiences and claims without being hassled or overly criticised. Remember everyone has varying levels of experience and knowledge in regards to the paranormal and this should always be taken into account before passing judgement or comment.

Should these photos be misiniterpreted and have in fact a conventional explanation they are still valuable examples of just that. Therefore as an educational tool for forum members and researchers (whatever their level of expertise) this is a valuable contribution. Either way thanks for your posting yowiedan.
