Ghostly Face of a Child

[MichaelF (FPIE)]

Hah!  I didn't ressurrect this post!  I was going to comment on it, but I was bringing up enough old posts already.  My theory is that it was photo shopped then sent to the phone, I believe the "face" was added in.

Take a look at the two people who the face appears between.  Use yourself as a right or left perspective.  The girl on the left is standing with her legs side by side, her shoulders are fairly square.  The girl on the right has one leg forward and one leg back, her one shoulder is actually behind the other girls.  You can actually "prove" that her leg is back by looking at the way the light hits their legs.  So according to their postures and the lighting, the girl on the rights back leg is back further then the legs of the girl on the left.

Now look closely at the "ghost," the face is in front of the WRONG leg.  How can it be behind the back leg and in front of the front leg?  Looks to me like whoever photoshopped it or whatever messed up.

I could be wrong, it could be real.  However this leads me to believe it is fake.

There is , however, a very large spirit between the girl in black and the girl in white....  Looks to be a sauvignon blanc.

Yea you can see the body, but I don't think there is anybody there in the origional picture.  Think about it, look at that wild and crazy hair, that hair is in front of the forward leg, how could it not be in front of the back leg?  Although...  if you are going to photoshop it anyway, why not remove the body?  Maybe if a real kid is there they could have their head against the back leg, smashing the hair, but I couldn't find a single pixel in front of the rear leg.  Karl, you have some good picture viewing stuff right, what do you think?

Well, here's the best I could do with the camera phone image.  I think you might be right.  Granted, it's hard to tell, but I truly don't see anything in it that I would identify as a facial form--certainly nothing that comes out of the larger photo as comparatively clearer.  Could be a forgery.  I still hold to my analysis on page 1 of this thread:  that the "photoshopped" face is really that of the crying kid (maybe from a picture taken a few minutes earlier), who was prevented from joining in on the group shot with the adults and had a tantrum.  Dave offers some reasonable debate points to my analysis, but my gut instinct says it's the same kid.

Hum...it's like the grilled cheese of the Virgin Mary or the Pancake of Jesus. 
In grade school we took apples, peeled them, made faces in them & set them
out to dry.  They shrunk & turned into funny looking wrinkled faces.  Maybe
the curtains where squished just so to make their very own shrunken face.

Ummm...I have to say that Karl definatley has more fashion sense.  And his glasses are way classier.

(This guy's eyebrows are racing to see who can reach the back of his neck first.  I wonder how he sleeps at night.  Hard to do if you can close your eyes.)  :o

Thank you, Tracy.  I had to do something to make up for that terrible decade of the '70s.  I actually owned--gulp!--a slate blue pair of pocketless polyester bell-bottoms and a peach Qiana fly-collar shirt.  (To be fair, I wore them together only once; pockets have since become a non-negotiable feature.)

I'm not even going to talk about the hair.  (Talk about the ghostly face of a child!)

OH GOD!  I'm going to have nightmares forever!!! 

Hey, betcha didn't have a yellow pair of gauchos.  Lord.....I looked like a walking banana. 

(I think the word ?Gaucho? should only be the name of a Steely Dan album?.never a garment)

[PPI Karl]

No gauchos.  But, it wasn't long before I bought into the parachute pants craze in the early '80s.  (At least they made sense in a winter clime and actually fit into the tops of my boots.  :)

OMG.  I totally forgot about that fashion faux pa from hell.  Parachute pants.  Weren't they the perfect compliment to the Members Only jacket?
