oil on wood / 40 x 40 cm


Most ghost photos are based on a snapshot. It´s typical for these images, that the intention was not to photograph a ghost, or paranormal phenomenen, but the family, a group shot, or in this case a child. After the photographic process people find unexplainable things in the completed image.

Many fake ghost & UFO photos play with this typical given fact, and stage-manage a classical photosituation where they involve their -proof- in the backround, often out of focus, to support the mystery within the image.

The photo I painted is one of the first to be found on Google, when -Ghost- is being written in Google. I don´t know if the template I used is a deliberately staged image e.g with a fog machine, or it´s just a random dust-clowd provoked by the neighbour´s mowing machine, but this image is definitely one of the most-present images in the internet when it comes to ghost-imagery.
