You're shooting with flash. Something over there is reflecting flash back and flaring the lens; possibly broken glass... That would be my guess.

I do believe that there's a presence there. They say ghosts show up in technical devices. It looks like a stream of fog that is either coming out of the doorway or is entering it. Very spooky Toniann. I can't sleep tonight because of you. Thanks! LOL.

I can see a face lots of places when I want to, but where do you see it personally?

I honestly believe in ghosts, spirits, and angels, and even (think) I have been visited by a few before. Call me crazy, think I'm dumb, whatever, but I truly do believe in this stuff. I could tell you the specifics, if anybody's actually interested.

I believe in two things very strongly:

1. There are spirits all around us all the time. Even though I believe this, I have personally never seen one with my own eyes.

2. Except for specific body and lens combinations, cameras are designed to see and record light in pretty much the exact same way that our eyes do. If you saw a ghost and then took a picture of it, I would say that this is a ghost. But anything that shows up on a camera that you didn't see when you were taking the picture is *always* a light reflection or, more seriously, a mechanical problem that should be corrected before ruining any more of your shots. :-)
