OK so I and my girlfriend took the photos over the last month or so. This 1st pic I took at the end of a ghost tour in Tombstone AZ, by the infamous OK Coral on Allen St. Except for the last photo, these are strange anomoly's that I can't account for. Are these spirits showing themselve's? Who knows. Some believe they are, showing up in various energy forms. This pic shows a bright white anomoly, appearing to be streaking straight up.



Here's a pic my girlfriend took in the bottom of the Queen Mary. We were 40 ft below sea level in the ship. A huge area that was almost pitch black. You can see the huge beams in the photo. But look at the different light forms that seem to be shooting through the photo, 3 different kinds at least.



My girlfriend also took this one on the ship. No that's not a headless apparition in the center, it's a manaquin lol. But look to the left, where you see 2 large tubes of white light running vertically, then merging together towards the top. This is not a camera strap. Some call these "Vortex Tubes" of spiritual energy. It was also taken at one of the most haunted areas of the ship, which is in the changing stall by the 1st class pool.



Here's another strange one she took. The 2 people in the photo are also on the tour of the ship. There's a strange double exposure look to it. Weird lights against the wall, but most of all, the strange blue colored ribbon thing shooting by the fellow tourists.



This is one I took during the ghost tour of the Birdcage Theatre in Tombstone AZ. During this time, we were all seated backstage of the Theatre, in total silence, and in pitch black. We were all trying to hear things as the tour guide asked questions to the spirits. We were encouraged to take photos from time to time in the darkness. I almost deleted this photo when I came across what looked like face of a man with a heavy mustache/gotee that was on, or in the old stagecoach Hearse that took many a gunslinger in the 1800's to the graveyard. I showed it to my girlfreind, and her kids. They all see the same thing. Do you guys see it? If so, what do you think?

Stapers, is this what you were referring to? I changed the contrast on the second image.

Yes. I am on the left and I can make out my black hair, faintly see my face, I can see the camera, and my arms holding up the camera, and my gray shirt. To my right is the dark image I'm talking about. It looks like a person wearing a bulky GI coat, bcoz I can even see the wrinkles in the sleeves, and I can see the lapel, and obviously the head. It looks like they're facing me at a 45 degree angle. Oh, and I can see the bend where his left elbow should be.

Actually, whoops, my bad. It would be his right elbow, I think. I'm getting confused by the reflection.

Thanks to Nhtr, I can more easily see the figure to your left, it does look like someone could be there standing next to you.

stapers, Ghost hunting, ghost photography has always been a interesting hobby for me, but I can't say that I'm an "Expert" at any of this, as you implied. We don't really know what any of this stuff is for sure. We can get photography experts to prove a photo is valid and un tampered with, which still doesn't nessesarily mean it's a dead person in a picture, just that it's unexplainable. That doesn't mean I don't believe in ghosts, or that they can't end up in photographs either. After growing up in a house in PA, I've had enough experiences, (along with my dad) to believe that spirits can hang around, and let you know they are there if they want. Some experiences in the bar I go to, (in my earlier posts here) have reinforced my beliefs, along with some of the images I have taken there, along with two proffesionally done ghost investigations. But I can't say I'm a expert.
