These pictures were taken last week with a digital camera. It was warm and the sun was shining, however this doesn't seem to be sun rays. There was no flash used. There were no hairs in front of the camera. No one was smoking. Although there it a good feeling to be in the cemetery, nothing was visible to the eyes. We would very much appreciate opinions on these pictures.
I came to this site looking for answers as we have similar photos of my grandfather's grave. I think I will go back and try to replicate them.

Green spirits by: Allan
There was a picture of me and a neighbor girl in her pink Barbie power wheels car. It was back in '90 or '91. When the picture came out (which was a Polaroid) there were about 6-7 green whisps around us in the picture. It was taken on a bright clear day.
I've seen a few other pictures similar to mine, but the phenomena seems to be so rare that the Internet finds almost no hits when searching for this topic. I know almost nothing about the green whisps, and I'd really like to have more information on them.

Phantom Image by: Witchy Woman
The green lights could be many different things, any of which are awesome. If photo shopped you have great skill there.
If it's a natural (non ghost) phenomenon you're still so lucky to have caught it as it's very rare. If it's a spirit you are truly blessed.
However, the image of a person in the first picture (looks like heat distortion) well, that got me. Even though you may never know who or what the lights were you were graced with benevolence that day. And yes, I do believe that what is showing in those pics is magical.

I Also Caught a Spiritual Spirit by: Jim Hurray
I had to make a comment on these pics. I also caugh something which I call a Spiritual Spirit. The color in these pics is close to the one I caught. I am still trying to understand it and looking for opinions. There also is a story behind this.
If you would please visit mine. I would like your opinion of what I caught on camera. This is the story behind it and the Link to go there. If you could please add my Link to your web page.
I take pictures for our local paper of the events that go on in our community. This Memorial day (May 31 2010) I took them like every year where they hold the Memorial day parade.
I can't mention who this man is but he owns and directs a Funeral parlor. The night before this picture was taken his God Daughter was killed in a motorcycle accident. She was very young and close to him.
He had to take care of the arrangements. You can see in the pictures the emotion as he was giving his speech for Memorial Day. The pictures were taken 20 seconds apart. I blew up photo 2 to show of what I think is a spiritual sprit. That is the only way I know how to describe it. Please let me know what you think.
I would also like to Post your thoughts on this web page. I will only use your First name or initials. The only editing I did was remove a person on the left side of photo 1 because I didn't have permission to post Her.

I believe that what you have caught could be a number of insects. As we can see, there are trees in the background so insects will be very dominate.

Well I believe in ghosts but I also don't chalk up strange pictures to be that of ghosts right away either. This picture was not taken from inside a car, it doesn't appear to be a glass glare, and there are no sun beams as it appears to be in a condensed tree area and there is no sun beaming through. It could be one in a million things, but it could very well be a ghost. Who knows.

There's obviously no face in the picture, the author never even claimed that there was. The streaks of light themselves are the supposed paranormal happening. Cool pic, caused by ghosts or not.

Nothing.. by: trubeliever
I think it funny when people actually believe there are faces when there is clearly nothing.
Your mind is seeing an unidentifiable shape so it tries to make what it can of it.
I see nothing because there is nothing here to see...
The streaks of light could easily be anything from camera straps to a bug flying very fast causing this "rod like" feature. Believe it or not it happens all the time, But unless there is a picture with a real...very obvious face or apparition I wont consider it.
Just my opinion but it was a very cool picture.

Faces by: Anonymous
I can see several faces in this photo. There is a childs face to the left. Above the purple flowers I can see a ladies face, maybe in her 40's and above this face is an older man's face. Can any one else see it?

So far, this is about the second photo that, in my opinion, is genuinely paranormal on this site. Green is said to be the color of healing; was your mom that sort of person?

Seeing a face. by: Archer
Hi. I was just checking through some of these pics to see if anyone has captured any good pics of ghosts. I was going down the list and when I saw this one and thought to myself "Okay, another ghost energy streams." And I was just about to leave when I decided to see if there was anything else. Well, as I was looking I saw this figure in the top of the grave in the back by the trees. I don't know if that's just my imagination or whatever... But I thought I should point it out. It looks like a face of someone with there mouth open, the stream at the top is running through it. So, I thought I should point it out. Anyway, that's all. Later! :D

Spirit energy by: Frank
What you have in the photo I have seen many times. It is what we call manifest spirit energy. Sometimes a camera can pick it up even though you don't see it with your eyes because the shutter speed is so fast. It is the manifestation of electro magnetic energy being given off by the spirit energy around the gravesite. I prefer the term "Non-living" to ghost. The mind dies, but the energy never does. Take some photos around your mothers favorite holiday in your home. Have a couple of photos of her around. See if it happens again. I tried this, and I got the same results. She's letting you know she's still here and loves you.

Hi Trink by: Anonymous
Don't you just love how a lot of these people shoot down the actual real paranormal pictures?
It is really a beautiful thing you were able to catch! some people never get to experience the rush of having captured real paranormal, I have been one of the lucky ones, if I were you I would keep going you may have the natural ability to make these things come out on camera.
Take Care :)

Thanks for all your comments by: Trink
I am so appreciating your awesome comments.
I especially liked when asked if this picture was doctored or photoshopped. It's not been touched in anyway.
It is a blessing for us to have this picture... It priceless.
Thanks again

Nathan B! Excellent comments. That's exactly the spirit of contemplation and respect that I welcome on this site. Skeptical criticism is expected and encouraged, but seldom executed as well as you have done. That was very respectful, eloquent and constructive. I thank you.

Repeatability by: Nathan B. (ScarySquirrel)
This picture makes a few of what we call in science "testable conclusions." Take an observer which has evidence of impartiality, do it again, and even I, an atheist, may start rethinking my beliefs.
However, don't make this the textbook spiritual argument of attributing an anomaly to spirits. Not all strange or pretty gardens have fairies in them.
Whether or not the effect repeats, it made a very nice picture.
Have you thought of working as a professional photographer?

I think it's a spirit of your mom. She's just letting you know she's around you. So she came through with her energy all around and they do appreciate the flowers and visits even though they often visit us at home too.

Amazing Spirit Photos by: Augustine Towonsing
These are amazing photos of spirit energy called supercharged orb that travels at a great speed that makes its appearance and disappears. The second photo, seems that the spirit almost appears in a shadow form but unfortunately only can be seen as green mist. Amazing photos!

OHhhhhhhhh by: RhapSody
I have no idea what that is but isn't it lovely? Since you are in a graveyard, I tend to think it could be some paranormal stuff. Since I've had some similar things happen in my photos, I lean toward it being something really special.
