Do you have an editing program where you can circle the area? I am not seeing anything at all.

Yes I see the eyes now. Very weird. If you like ghosts this is the place to be I guess...We even have a festival, and many ghostly tours....It sounds like fun, so I must try it.

Too far apart? Maybe its R&B singer Brandy then. If not, its definately some ghostly apparition. Like Azkadellia said, just look at it, its like they are staring back at you. Scary

hmm ok well I have stared and stared and stared.. and still no weird creepy feeling or think they look like eyes

If you enlarge the photo, it just looks like water spots. In fact, there are spots just like them on the other panes as well. These two just happen to be close together and with a comment or two, people can be given the suggestive thought to think they are eyes

Not to say I don't believe in spirits (in fact, photo with weird blue smoke in kitchen is neat), but I don't think a spirit was captured in this photo. However, that is just my opinion

It doesn't look like eyes to me. Looks like finger prints or smudges on the inside of the glass that the camera picked up. But still very interesting.

After doing some history on the old post office and showing my picture to some of the locals there, they said the post office was built in 1901 and there has been reports of incidences of a black shadowy man who lingers there, his presence is evil feeling and threatening. I really could not find any more information on who he might be or if its a demonic spirit or just a restless soul. I did learn that the former post master was 6'4, very broad and very stout, which might explain the wide space between the eyes if it is him. The eyes didn't show up in the pictures before or after, I turned to take other pictures of wheels and such. The place did have a creepy feeling to it. I will be going back often to see what else I can catch and learn.
