What Can It Be? In My Picture

Hello ATS'ers.

When I was going through some pictures I picked up earlier today,
I noticed something strange. I have no idea what it is, my family
suggested its a gaurdian angel. I'm puzzeled never-the-less.....
Naturally a skeptic to these sorts of things, I decided to get the
opinion of the intellectual ATS community.

The original picture was taken with a Kodak despensable camera,
the expensive ones. I took the pic of the pic with my camera/digital camera.
(I don't own a scanner) Possibility is, it might be a photo defect, but I
doubt it. All the other pictures came out great.

Here are 4 pictures I took of the original picture.

So what do you think?

Looks like a branch with a flower on it.

It does kinda look like a face.
What I guess would be the hair, looks to me like one of those powdered wigs the judges (and so forth) would wear.
It's a good conversation peice.

Notice it's in front of the jeep in the background, meaning to get a picture like that of a branch, the picture-taker would have to be holding the branch with the flower, which he was'nt. Also what would cause the branch to be of such color? and brighter and lighter in some points and appear to be glowing?

Please explain.

heh, yeah. I think it resembles Marilyn Monroe a little.

Was there a camera strap? Sometimes those things can fall in front of the lens if you're not careful. Since you turned the camera on it's side to get a taller picture, there's a better chance for the strap to fall over the lens (depending on what side the strap was attached if there was one)

No, the camera was a despensable one. Meaning one time use only, You use up the 24 shots, and then you turn it in to be developed. Those kinds of cameras don't have straps.

Sorry, but I'm not seeing anything strange or unusual. I just don't see anything. If it were an angel or something, I think we'd see more than just a 'gee, I think I might see something .... ' Sorry.

I understand, what I'm trying to figure out is, what is it. I never claimed it to be anything.

Knowing that I have this sort of thing happen to me before and I claimed that it was aghost or something. I did a lot of research and that is either a bug flying really fast, past your camera. Or.. it is the camera strap. Or it could be a ghost, who knows. But sometimes cameras produce wierd things and our imagination tells us it could be something else.

It sure does look like a branch with a flower on to me, the 'face' is nothing, probably just matrixing.

Or it could be the camera, disposible ones are never really any good, could be a defect.
