Ghost? Photo I took on holiday...

I took this image on holiday in Dublin, whilst on the 'Dublin Ghost Bus'. It was taken in St Kevins Graveyard, I noticed what looked like a face in the picture when I took the image but wasn't sure since things look different when they are small... I don't know what to think, it could simply be a trick of the foliage but I leave it up to the scrutiny of you guys!

If anyones handy with photoshop could you lightening it up for us all so we can have a better luck? I wanted to avoid any photo shop myself to avoid any accusations (plus I'm rubbish with it )

would you mind steering my eyes in the right direction? i don't see anything out of the ordinary

Here are some others I took at the '40 steps', I noticed the orb in the top left when I took it, but obviously it's hard to say whether it's paranormal or just dust/insect etc - but what I do find intresting is when you look at the images 58-60 in order. I didn't notice the strange blueish glowing dot on the stairs at the time, this doesn't appear in any other photographs (which where all taken from rought the same spot and angle). Again I'll leave these for you guys to mull over

Bottom left hand corner of the window, I see a face - but if you don't then maybe it's just an optical illusion

I'm not seeing a face either.

And that "orb" looks to me like light striking your lens through the trees. The breeze probably blew the leaves around, and that's why it only shows up in one of the pix.

Your probably right, but it was rather over cast - The photo's where taken between 9-10pm. No one was smoking (although since theres no smoke I guess thats irrelevent), but there where other people talking pictures

Damn the edit button only lasting for about 20 seconds!

Sorry for the double post, heres the face I see without the rest of the image.

could be an optical illusion but I do see a face of a child in the first photo after you directed us where to look.

saw the orbs in the others but nothing in 58.

question for you, did you sense or feel something was there before you took the pictures or were they all just random pics?

Yup i see the face, Oddly i spotted it right away lol,

Theres nothing i 58, I posted it so I showed the series. The images of the window and the 40 steps are photographs I took because the guide told us that, that was where most of the phenomena was seen/photographed.

I did however take some photographs of what I assume is some form of church store because I felt like there was something there, and lo-and behold an orb appeared. I think the flash was used on these two images though (it wasn't on the step images)

circled it, hope that helps

oh my I just noticed I'm seeing a different face from you guys...

anyone else see the child in the area I circled????

I'm afraid I'm not seeing it, I've squinted at it so much I have a headache lol. Does anyone see what Worldwatcher is seeing? I do oddly see a troll (you know the collectable ones with the sticky up hair) in the circle?? :S

I brighting it up some, I would have to say it's part of the structure and leaves. Then again if look at the wall long enough you would see many faces...

don't worry if you don't see what I see, people rarely see what I see.

I'll see if i can outline better

oh and for some reason or the other, I forgot how to crop



head and shoulders of a small child, or great optical illusion

Yeah, I do see it now - but I think it might be an optical illusion, since I had to really focus to find it.

About the 'Green Lady' of the 40 steps

St Audoen's is the kind of place that when visited, especially at night, really sends a shiver down your spine. In the 18th century, the church bordered the area of the city then known as Hell. There are tales from as recently as the late 1980s of nuns coming across the ghosts of lepers.The Green Lady, Dublin's most famous ghost, apparently haunts the outside of St Audoen's and has been seen by scores of people. She is believed to be the ghost of Darky Kelly, executed for the murder of her unborn child. She was put to death by Simon Luttrell, Sheriff of Dublin and a member of a group of satanists known as the Hellfire Club, who was supposedly the child's father.

I'm trying to find some info on St. Kevins graveyard but it's proving quite hard :S

This feels like an ink blot test of some sort.. the shape that leapt out at me was this one:

I could see many faces materialising in the brick / stone patterns.. it becomes whatever you want to see.

Worldwatcher, thats the same thing that jumped out to me when first looking at it.

The first pic looks like a monkeys head to me!
