I see dead people.

OK, this may (or may not) freak you out.
Four of us have seen this photo I took in the catacombs of Paris and saw several faces in the image. If you see them, it's really freaky. I needed two glasses of wine to sleep (pffft. yeah, that's why). Can you see them, or did I just get some bad mojo from taking the pics?

[billyskank]

1. I don't see 'em

:shrug:

[Droopy]

2. I think you better lay off the wine

:)

[bigwillq]

3. I don't see them.

Must be you! :)

[skygazer]

4. I don't see faces

But that's a cool photo.

[globalvillage]

5. Look at the white stone

by the torch on the right. One of the faces' right eye is just to the right of the stone. I'm tellin ya, there are faces in the pic. There is a large one right in the middle.

Thanks, BTW.

[Droopy]

6. I see that one now

Maybe I need to lay of the diet coke and marlboros.

[globalvillage]

8. I'm not drinking now.

I was in Paris two days ago and took that photo. There is a large face in the middle of the pic. Look to the left of the torch on the right. Eyes closed, head back. See it?

[Droopy]

9. I think I do

I also think that there's one to the right of the torch on the left. Kinda looks like a skull.

[MH1]

10. Hee hee

Yep I see the one to the right of the torch on the right.

I don't see the big one in the middle.

I do see a party of faces just above the flame of the torch on the right. And I haven't had any wine yet! (Wait, maybe that's the problem!)

Welcome back, btw!

:toast:

[globalvillage]

11. Thanks, MH

I will post a link to my best photos and video once I get everything organized. This one freaked me out, though. The kids, too. They see some faces that I can't.

Here's a cool photo taken the same day near our apt. Our guess was this guy moved to Paris just after bush* stole the first one.

[bigwillq]

7. I think you're wine was spiked sweetie!

:P :)

[Vektor]

12. The Catacombs are freaky as hell, and yeah

I do see some bizarre imagery there. On the right, there are some areas that could look like faces - the one to the immediate right of the stone has dark areas that make up a face, like the comedy/tragedy mask... either way, that is pretty spooky. I have no doubt there's weird Mojo floating around in there.

[sandnsea]

13. I see two

One over on the right, a woman, her eyes are eye-level with that square whatever with numbers on it. Then, to the left side of that pole, very large face in the middle of the picture almost. Those are the only two that pop out at me.

Shouldn't let it freak you out, it's just shadows and light.

[smirkymonkey]

23. Okay, now I see the woman - it's strange how distinct the contours

of the face are once you see it. I am still struggling with the face in the middle though.

[sandnsea]

24. I have a laptop

The picture actually looks different now than earlier today when I was in a different chair and the light was different. Earlier, those two lights looked like they were light poles. Now I can see that they aren't. But I also can't see the middle face anymore either. Maybe tomorrow, when the light is different I'll be able to see it again!!

[CaliforniaPeggy]

14. I don't see any faces, anywhere.....

Sorry......

I think perhaps you have a very vivid imagination.....:shrug:

Glad you had a good trip, though!

:hi:

[anarch]

15. I'm not sure, but I think I may see some faces in this photo, too

Kinda skeletal looking....

[Mayberry Machiavelli]

16. Yes, if you kind of look SIDEWAYS at it, they ALMOST look like human

skulls. ALMOST.

[globalvillage]

22. You know...

If you touch the water in the basin, you're next. Did you touch it???

That's what this says...



Either that, or it's a no smoking sign. My French is not that good.

:-)

[philosophie_en_rose]

28. don't touch anything and don't smoke.

sounds like good advice. don't want to piss off the inhabitants.

[Maestro]

17. I see nothing but

a dark crypt type area with bad lighting and some sort of bench.

[Blue-Jay]

18. The human mind is an amazing, fickle thing.

We try to see humanity in every abstract. What is actually cigarette smoke, bad camera focus or even a mountain formation on Mars looks like a face to us. And why shouldn't it? We spend so much time looking at ourselves in a mirror and looking at our colleagues and seeing what we expect to see. Certainly, the mind strives to create order out of chaos. And that is why many people will see a face in that pic.

P.S. - It isn't ghosts or Xenu or what-have-you.

[_dynamicdems]

31. It is also a factor of artistic perception because spatial relationships

can be perceived within the chiaroscuro created by the dim lighting. Imagination will also create imagery out of shapes and shadows. The more creative among humanity were the first to see constellations where others saw only a random scattering of stars.

So is it creative perception, wishful thinking or are these images the energy imprints of human souls? Beats the Hell outa me.

[Fleshdancer]

19. I see 3. n/t

[The Velveteen Ocelot]

20. Yikes, I see five of them. Two one the left side, three on the other.

Saw them immediately. And I'm sober. But maybe I'm just overly-suggestible. But I think I'd have seen them even if you hadn't said they were there; they are pretty obvious, especially the one on the lower right.

Wait a second, there's also a big one right in the middle, not as clear.

[nolies32fouettes]

21. OMG--I see them ...4 or 5. How are they there?

[JohnKleeb]

25. I can't see the faces but it is an eerie photo

[graywarrior]

26. I don't see them, but I hear voices.

[_dynamicdems]

27. Oh I see them allright. Quite a few actually,

The one on the right sight below and to the right of the light with its head tilted to the right and mouth open is quite disturbing. And I haven't had any wine.

Then there is a large face right in the center. It is actually two different faces: one straight on and one upside-down.

Then there is a small face in the bricks just left and down a bit from the light on the right side of the photo.

I also see another upside-down face with a slightly open mouth between the center face and the small one mentioned above.

[wildhorses]

29. yes I see a couple up there at the light

shit dude the longer I look at this the more I see....


there a bunch of faces in that picture...all over the place

[no name no slogan]

30. me too

I fuckin hate deadheads

[JanusAscending]

32. I can't wait to send you the photos..

of my daughters wedding. Out of 100 digital photos, 11 of them (all of the bride and groom) have "orbs" in them. Not dirty lens, not the lighting. One of them, when they are having their first dance, looks like they are on Lawrence Welk's show. So many "orbs"!! Look up on Google "orbs in digital photos" Lots of articles. I see it as a good thing. Blissfully happy couple who are "soul-mates" surrounded by their loved ones who have passed on!! (Bride's father and grandparents, Grooms Grandmother!!) It freaked out my son who took the pictures. The couple have yet to see them, but I gave them a warning to be prepared. You will all see for yourselves, when I get them into "photobucket". YES I do see the faces in your photo. They popped out at me immediately. COOL!! DCO8)

[globalvillage]

33. There were orbs in one of our other photos in the catacombs

I didn't know what orbs were until the kids told me.
Very strange.
