I was just sitting in my hotel room last month, in a brown leather high-backed recliner chair. I saw myself reflected in this TV screen, so I grabbed a couple quick snaps because I thought it would look cool. When I got home and looked at this one, I saw this- me, in a red shirt, sitting in the chair. Odd thing, though- doesn't it look like there's someone standing behind me, looking down at me? You can tell it's behind the chair and to the right of the pic.
Pretty cool.
Of course, I don't believe for a second it's really a ghost, but what the hell IS it? There was NOTHING behind me when I took the shot. NOTHING.

An aside: other than cropping the pic to center the TV in the frame, there has been NO editing, color tweaking, or Photoshopping of this pic.

(149,762 posts)It looks rather like a dresser and mirror behind you, to me.
The mirror is rectangular which makes sense, and the dresser too.
Of course, if you want to believe it's a ghost..........well, who am I to stop you?

It looks like you have on a short-sleeved red blouse, a gold necklace, and dark fingerless gloves on your hands as you hold the camera up to your eyes. I don't know why brown leather recliner reflects gray-blue, though.

(15,676 posts)Not much hair to part, and you can see the necklace is a cheap orange cell phone lanyard. This explains why my head is simply a blob in the pic- I guess you can say it's highly reflective.
