Halloween Ghosts

Nikon D300, 50mm, F/10, 1/500, ISO 200.

While I was photographing a rose taken from my garden, I noticed some weird objects in my viewfinder, to my surprise I saw ghosts! I quickly took a picture of them, otherwise who would believe me. Happy Halloween! Comments appreciated.

Hmmm. The one I see for sure is sort of cut off in the URC. Not sure I see any others, except maybe a ghost dachshund, but I enjoyed looking for them and I do like the the play of light, form, and color in this striking abstract.

Fine collection of shapes and colors. There's lots of interesting movement here. I like the pointers toward the upper right.

How bold of the ghosts to lurk in your garden. Glad you captured them, this is a lovely image.

Very nice colors but too soft for my taste. Nicely done Albert.

Very interesting shot Albert. I like the "creamyness" especially the right half. :toast:
