Aww, I like your picture just fine May! I just don't see what you are seeing in it. As for the photograph itself, it's decent. Nice and clear, nothing all blurry or out of focus.

I just don't see what you are seeing.

That surprised a laugh out of me. I'm sorry but I didn't see anything. Well, I did see one thing but I won't say it. It's kind of naughty and I might get in trouble.

Sorry I didnt get to this sooner, I was literally falling asleep at the keyboard last night. I took the negative view, overlayed it on the original and then outlined our lady there. I hope this helps.

No need! Courtney would wipe the floor with Linda! ...she's the scariest person EVER when she's angry! she would have Linda curled up in a ball crying and shouting ''Mommy'' within minuites! ..... I know from experience!

I see the girl! actually saw a different face the first time I seen the pic last month..... I can't make out these rude bits though

I’ve read the past posts here but I haven’t heard this mentioned yet, although I may have missed it, so if that's the case then I apologise for repeating it. From the looks of it, from where I can see anyway, it looks like a simple case of matrixing in all honesty.

Matrixing,

The TV show Ghost Hunters is largely responsible for bringing this to public attention; it’s another name for Pareidolia, the two terms mean more or less the same thing.

Matrixing is the term the Ghost Hunters use to describe the misidentification of something ordinary as something unusual. It comes into play most often when people take photographs and spot something in the picture they are sure was not there when the photo was taken. Often, it is a face or figure and seems to be human.

Examples of matrixing,

• The Face on Mars. This infamous picture seems to show the shape of a human face on the surface of Mars, but later pictures of the same area demonstrated that the image was the product of natural features and shadow.

• Car design. The front of a car - the grill, headlights, and shape of the hood - often resemble a face. Designers pay attention to this, giving family cars a friendlier "face", and sports cars a more aggressive one.

• The appearance of "holy" figures in surprising places. The images of Christ, the Virgin Mary or other figures of faith have appeared in locations as diverse as stained concrete, windows and food.

• Shapes in clouds. Probably the most immediately familiar form of matrixing, anyone who has looked into the sky and thought "that cloud looks just like..." has experienced a form of harmless matrixing.

• Rorschach ink blot tests. These depend on a sort of directed matrixing, with the person taking the test allowing their sub consciousness to make the ink shape suggest something, or form patterns.

Pareidolia,

Pareidolia (pronounced /pærɪˈdoʊliə/ pa-ri-DOE-lee-ə) is a psychological phenomenon involving a vague and random stimulus (often an image or sound) being perceived as significant. Common examples include seeing images of animals or faces in clouds, the man in the moon or the Moon rabbit, and hearing hidden messages on records played in reverse. The word comes from the Greek παρά (para- – "beside", "with", or "alongside"—meaning, in this context, something faulty or wrong (as in paraphasia, disordered speech)) and εἴδωλον (eidōlon – "image"; the diminutive of εἴδος, eidos – "image", "form", "shape"). Pareidolia is a type of apophenia.

The best example I can find of matrixing is in the image below.

You see, it’s nothing but a rock, something that’s certainlky confirmed but to most people, at first glance it looks something like the face of a demon or something similar. This is matrixing. Seeing an image, in most cases paranormal, but in reality, there is no image there. Just the brain trying to make sense of what it's seeing.

This is also a good example, It's nothing but a single line and 3 circles, but to every single person looking at it, what's seen is in fact a face! Again, this is matrixing.

Anyway, I’m not trying to shoot your thread down or anything like that Givenmay, I'm just trying to explain what I thinks happening in the image in the opening post. That’s all.

That figure in the knot of the tree reminds me first of a tree fairy. Then after I examine it closer it looks like a figure that is stuck in purgatory.

If you discount the paranormal aspect of the image, then it is indeed martixing. No matter what the reason is that we see the image, it is way cool nontheless! Just shows what the mind is capable of.

LMAO, a tree with a vagina.

I'm sorry but I'm not sure what you mean.

When you take away the paranormal aspect of the image, there's no matrixing at all as far as I'm able to see. Reason being, it's only matrixing at all (IMHO) because it's suspected of being paranormal and the suspected paranormal aspect is the matrixing that we're seeing. Discounting it means no matrixing is then occurring.

...Maybe I'm just being dumb and not understanding properly but can you clarify what you mean please?

It isn't my intention to be rude or insult your picture in any way, but people do see things differently from others. I'm sure Freud would have lots to say about this since no matter how hard I tried, I could only see several vaginas.

I could be (and most probably will be) wrong about this but isn't this what we are supposed to be looking at?

[atsimg]http://files.abovetopsecret.com/images/member/a18f04491f53.jpg[/atsimg]

It looks like a woman, not a..errmm..well...err.. "Yer know".

Why would dead people hang around a cemetery? By the time you are buried, you have usually been dead for almost a week. Don't you think the spirit has separated from the body by then? I believe dead folks have more important things to do than hang around the cemetery. I intend to be cremated, so I am definitely separating as soon as I am dead.

That guy is really serious about POCKET POOL. He looks like he is practicing for the world championship.

Many thanks, Rising Against...I don't know how I could have missed that big red oval! I must've been distracted somehow.
