well i was at a charity basketball game at my school between students and teachers. i was taking pictures throughout the game, and right at the end of the game, during a foul shot, i caught this interesting photo of almost a person like figure.... i'm not saying its a ghost, but it looks interesting

(right to the right of the person, its almost like a blue discoloration with an orangish "head")

Image

and sorry about the quality, thats the best i could do zoomed in to fit the picture like that

to make this clear, i am by no means saying this is a ghost, it just looked odd in the picture, almost like a human form to a certain extent, and there are rumors my school is "haunted" but i really don't believe them, its most likely just something from the camera, but you never know i guess

Take another pic using the same camera, location, time & lighting. Do you know if theres a story behind the school rumors?

Why would a school on the rez have a mascot like that? :?

We aren't mascots, nor are we just pre-history. :wink:

When I was a kid in Jersey we had a story about Indian ghosts. All it was was swamp gas, but it was fun to scare the new or younger kids.

I made it a bit clearer....if I overdo it it's just a big blur, that's why I couldn't get it even more clear.

I was just wondering is it a digital camera (probably) it could be that some pixels on your camera could have been burned in there a bit longer then they should have and you get that result... my uncle taught me this (he worked at a photo hut not to long ago) :)

this.

It's the way the light reflects off the camera lense from when you take the picture. If you had flash on there's always a duplicate image that's faded.
in the background. usually it's hard to see because lots of the colors stand out.
