It's also a possibility that this may just be a double exposure. I don't think there is anything "supernatural" about this.edit on 7/11/2011 by amaster because: (no reason given)

Does anyone know the reason for Jeff's unexpected death? Please don't get upset at me for asking, if it's not a good question then don't bother to respond. I'm personally going through brain cancer right now and it drives me freaking nuts when people start asking me all kinds of inconsiderate questions.

Okay, so Brion was there in spirit, because the love of his life was marrying someone else. THAT, I can accept and appreciate. He may have had an out of body experience of some kind, and only his soul was there...
BUT what nobody else is mentioning, at least to my knowledge, as I've not read through EVERY reply, however rude and obtuse as some of them seem to be, is the GLOWING ANGELIC BEING standing BETWEEN the two ladies in the photograph. The wings are jutting out the back, and there is a clear head and body standing there.
Perhaps that angelic being transported Brion's spirit to the event somehow. With God, ALL THINGS ARE POSSIBLE!

Finally, if this is a picture of Cindy and her sister at their brother's (John's) wedding to which Jeff was the best man, then why did Jeff have this picture? Wouldn't John have it. Why would Jeff have an old picture of his brother's wife. You said John's got the negatives, so why did he give this picture to Jeff? If he made a duplicate, he would have given it to Brion or Cindy instead. Something isn't adding up.
Regardless, if this is true, and the negative does exist and Brion is shown in it, then case closed. He was there.

Perhaps this could explain your mysterious photograph - ever heard of Ted Serios's "Thoughtographs?"
en.wikipedia.org...
I saw this photo show at; The Albin O. Kuhn Library Gallery presents Psychic Projections/Photographic Impressions: Paranormal Photographs from the Jule Eisenbud Collection on Ted Serios. For several years in the 1960s psychiatrist Dr. Jule Eisenbud, a faculty member at the University of Denver, conducted experiments with Ted Serios, a Chicago man who possessed an apparent ability to place images from his mind onto Polaroid material using psychic energy. Over the course of these experimental sessions Serios produced a vast body of photographs, or “thoughtographs,” that continue to baffle researchers and critics to this day.
Pretty amazing stuff.edit on 12-7-2011 by DancingEagle because: Left out Ted's name in the intro.

But anyways, great thread. I usually don't buy any doppleganger, astral projection, or paranormal stuff, but this photo and the look on Brions face it all just seems troubling when you first look at it, before even hearing the details..., something about it seems off. This one has me stumped.
By the way, sorry to hear about the loss of your brother.

This post has really amazed me and thank you for the mystery. One question please and its probably not the time to ask your brother but do you know if he was under severe stress or contemplating doing himself harm? Was he aware of this wedding and the exact time of the reception? This is very freaky and you do sound very genuine. Good luck with your efforts and condolences to you and your family on the loss of your brother

Ok, from what I understand is that your brother had a crush on the gal in the photo but her then boyfriend was a bit of a loony and prone to violence so your brother couldn't (or rather, shouldn't) be around her or him. Then you also say that your brother wasn't even in that town during the time of this photo. I fully believe what your saying, the look on your brothers face as well kinda stands out to me.
I'm not one that believes in astral projection and the likes, but perhaps that's exactly what was going on here? He does look a bit out of place.
I'm also sorry to hear about your loss, it's never easy to lose someone close to you.
I'm wondering if anyone's ever run into something like this - a living person showing up in a photo hundreds of miles away from where they were at the time.

The ghostly face on the right of the flag looks like smiling for the photo too. What about the camera used, do you have it now?
Do your brother recognized the clothes his image wears in the photo ?
Hell, I recognize the shirt he's wearing. He and I spent a lot of time working together on a variety of projects during that period, and that shirt was a go-to standard. That and a t-shirt most of the time. Most guys have a favorite flannel. That blue one was his favorite for years.
