This ghost appears in that faded zone twixt sleep and wakefulness. Photographed at the Tonawanda-Kenmore Historical Society, this is the "ghost of Knoche Road", purportedly seen by motorists several times over the past 50 years. ...Truth be told, however, this is a doll dressed in a wedding gown inside a glass case. The transparency effect is due to reflections of the museum wall in front of the case on the glass. Photoshop 7.0 used to crop and sharpen. NeatImage used to reduce noise.

This would have been even more intense if you could have made the stain glass window clear with more contrast. I also would have liked the model a bit more centered. still a very artistic take on the challenge.
I'm guessing a manniquin in a church, very nice. The seeming effect of smoke in the area is very appealing and the slightly out of focus "ghost" works very well. If the vel was spread out slightly more so you could see through part of it would have cinched a much higher score from me.
This is wonderful ! Actually spooky. I like the way you added the fog or mist effect the stained glass window in the background adds depth to this shot..I like it
Ghosts are always pretty scarry, a bit washed out in the main subject. I am guessing that the two pictures where taken in different locations rather then the ghost being removed from one while the camera was left set up.
