I took a picture of a ghost in New Orleans!!

So we went on a Haunted History tour in New Orleans...which, btw, if you are ever down there, I highly reccomend doing. Our tourguide suggested we take lots of pictures because of all the paranormal activity. So I took some, obviously not expecting anything, especially with a digital camera... buuuut my cousin and I were a little creeped out to see what appears to be a face on my camera. Top left corner. A little freaky. This was taken in a field where in New Orleans start, men would battle to solve legal matters etc etc. I uploaded it to photobucket. I took two pics before this one where you can kind of see the face forming. I'm kind of excited! What does everyone think? If it can be explained away I'll be dissapointed... but I just think its creepy.

That's not a ghost silly. That's a pretty blonde girl ... What, wait, wrong pic.

That in fact is quite spooky. A little convenient and anthropomorphic, but still.
Did you feel a presence?

hehe

yea, i felt it the entire time...which is i guess what made me take pictures right there. there were much more scenic, nice looking pictures i took without that ugly fence. But I took like 3 of the same spot, for a reason I didn't know...and then when I looked at my pictures I said hmm that's weird. I wonder if this guy wanted to be seen lol. It's just weird because it's not even a face so much the shape almost reminds me of a lion or a mask...I don't know. I was highly fascinated.

Well I'm not the resident paranormal expert, but imho, I think you might have the real thing in your picture.
Well done btw.
In one trip you got more evidence that three seasons of Most Haunted.

thanks! I was kind of excited. Just hoping that spirit doesn't decide it wants to follow me now, haha.

i'm still waiting for the skeptics though!

oh and by the way... your avatar... I know i saw that movie a lonnggg while ago. I remember crying, is it sad? What's it called?

It's from the movie "Powder", one of if not my favorite movie.

Should get Internos or one of the other image experts in here to figure out if that isn't some sort of normal digital camera phenomenon. Might be a good idea to tell us what kind of camera you're using too, so that we can see if other owners experienced the same effects.

Shouldn't be too hard to find pictures other people who have taken of the same tour too. If this is happening on a reg basis then maybe it's worth looking into.

this is what i see
www.mardigrasoutlet.com...
definately looks like it.

my camera is a kodak easyshare z650. how do i get image experts to analyze the picture?

As far as other pictures, there is actually a website and a book full of the pictures that people have taken on this tour. the link to the tour is www.hauntedhistorytours.com

It doesn't need to be explained away - first you need to come up with real evidence (hint: a photo is not evidence of anything other than light hitting the CCD in your camera).

Clearly you want to believe in ghosts, but don't have any evidence. You're not being objective in your analysis.

Pretty interesting photo. Would you mind posting the rest of the pictures in sequence, say a few taken before that one and a few taken after?

looks like a panda bear to me.

Teapot

That's what I see!
