Don't worry I'm not going to be offended if anyone thinks they are false. I already know they are true, I posted the story/pics because I think they would be something very interesting for a lot of people here, plus it would be lovely to get any and all outside opinions on the entire subject.

I have actually noticed that the gowns are different. The girl in pic1 looks to be wearing a white outfit and pic2 has more of a light beige/pink patterned sort of gown. It may well be 2 different manifestations, and yes maybe even sisters! (that is what I mean by getting outside opinion, I had never thought about sisters before)

Also, yes it may well be that the pictures are one massive joke, but if so she's played it on *every* one of our close friends and families, and for several years. I can't stop you from thinking they're a prank but I assure you that I know K, and I know when she tells the truth. Also from my own experiences in the story, I have my own proof that also you can choose to disbelieve if you would like.

Thankyou for your response:) Just btw, it's Tamsin, not Tasmin - sorry to be nit-picky but people always mix it up lol!

Maybe I'm just crazy or over-analyzing these pictures, but does the girl's dress from picture 1 seem to be different from the one in 2? I don't know why its bothering me but in picture 2 it seems like shes wearing some kind of pantaloons under a gauzy kind of lace, but it seems longer and plainer in the first photo. All due respect tasmsin, I feel these pictures are very good evidence for study, but maybe there are more than one ghost girls that manifested in the picture? Maybe sisters?

Another possibility is can your friend K be playing a joke on you? I highly doubt it but I'm just trying to literally wrap my brain around this lol...
These pictures are wonderful evidence of the paranormal if they are real as I want to beleive, so maybe this is my minds way of trying to logically explain them, pointing out these minute details. Just something to look at.
All respect to you tasmin, I admire you for coming out with these photos and am grateful for your submission. Please don't take this as in any way disrespectful, just food for thought.

I'm sorry Ari, I wouldn't have a clue.
I can ask K for you but I wouldn't expect her to remember or still have them as she has a different phone now and it was years ago. I will ask though.

The best I can say is it would have been quite a few. We teenage girls tend to take *many* photos and I know for sure that K is no exception to that!

Dear tamsin,
What is the total number of photos taken that day, do you have any idea, in that particular session?

Thank you so much for providing the original photos and the link to them.
Thanks also for replying to all my questions. I appreciate you sincerity and eagerness.

Yes I realised that they were not blacked out.
I thought it might help you here to have the *original* photos without the editing on paint. These are the exact files that were taken with her camera.

Yes the photos were taken using an auto-shoot, as far as I know (otherwise I'm not sure how they took pic2, with both of them in the shot, seeing as they were the only ones home at the time)

I also realise how rare it is to capture photos like this. I think they are amazing, and have saved the file in many places in case of loss.
I also realise that because they are so amazing, most people will be skeptical of them (people SHOULD be skeptical, in my opinion. The smartest of people will question rather than believe)

(Sorry to triple post!)

I've been looking over the photos now in regards to your camera position question. I think that actually pic1 may have been taken with the camera placed in a shelf in the TV cabinet (I'm sure you know what I mean, some TV cabinets have those small shelves on the sides to stack DVDs/books etc) which is why the camera is facing more towards the couch, and pic2 taken with the camera on top of the cabinet, facing more towards the doorway. I think the camera looks to be a bit lower in position in pic1 than in pic2.
Also K appears to be moving from her pose in pic3 (see how her hands move from her hip pose?). Perhaps she had thought the picture had taken and was moving to look at the camera.

To be honest though, I am having guesses at what may have occurred as of course I have no way of knowing. Hopefully you can come to your own conclusions and ideas.

Regards, Tamsin.

tamsin,

Thanks for the feed back... Now one more question... Do you know who was taking the photos or if the camera was set on a timer?

I am not a photo expert... I do know that it is rare for mutiple images of the same spirit to be captured so close together... Time lapse photography may do this on occasion (catching a manifestation in progress) but rarely something like you are sharing with us...

One case comes to mind...

The Golden Lady Ghost...

A series of pictures and some video that were taken at an abandoned home seem to show the same spirit... (Pictures can be found here on YGS there is also a link to the video...)

Http://www.yourghoststories.com/ghost-pictures-videos/golden-lady.php

So IF REAL these pictures are a rare and amazing capture.

I hope you are able to host them in photo bucket... Or another picture hosting site.

Respectfully,

Rook

I will do so ASAP, I'll have to make a whole new PB account as my current one is over-run my photos of my mice... Lol. I also just used paint to cover up their faces.

I can only tell you my assumed answers to your questions as I was not there to know, but I'm basing my answers on knowledge of her house lay-out.
In the first pic, the camera would have been sitting on top of the TV cabinet, as it was in the second pic. A possible series of events for your questions would be that pic2 was actually taken first, and then the camera position was moved forward to get rid of the wood showing up in the photo, then pic1 taken.
In pic3, the position of the camera leads me to think that the camera-phone was set upon the small lamp table next to the TV cabinet (the one mentioned in my story, that showed up with the head bobbing around on it). The lamp table is quite low to the ground, so that is probably why half of Ks head is cut off. I believe the centering of the apparition is purely coincidental.
No, no editing has been done to the photos save the blocking out of Ks face.

Thankyou for your responses. I am trying to help as best I can, let me know if you need any more info and I will be happy to provide it.

tamsin,

Thanks for sharing this story and the pictures. I have a question about the second and third ones.

In the first photo 'K's' cousin is in the picture with her... Who took the picture?

In the second one... Where was the person standing that took the picture? It appears that the camera is setting on top of a dresser or something.

In the third one it seems as if the photographer was 'centered' on the apparition and not 'K' (the second picture also seems like that is the case), were these pictures 'cropped' in any way to 'center' the apparition?

Respectfully,

Rook

Dear tamsin,
That would be really helpful if you upload them on photobucket.
One more question. What software did you use to cover the faces?

Thankyou everyone for your responses.

I don't know what you mean about the compression? I can upload them to photobucket if you would like, but I think they will be the same size as these as they are they same file I sent to YGS with my submission.

Haha I think not, her baby sister was barely a toddler at the time! She is only just turning 5 this year. The girl in the photos looks to be around 7-8 to me.

They truly are fascinating aren't they! I don't blame you for thinking I'm 'having you on' as the photos are so amazingly clear (even I find it hard to believe) but I wish you the best in studying them!

Dear tamsin,
Will it be possible for you to upload the original pics without the compression, maybe on flickr, and post the links here?

A request I implore you to consider.

Great story and great photos! It took me a minute to find the little girl's toes behind your friend - but they are very obvious once you see them. I can vouch for the LG slider phone, I still have and use mine. They have terrible photo-ability! But is a durable phone, obviously, as I got mine in March 2010 and it works fine. Thank you for sharing, and including the photos. If you hear any more info from your friend, please post. 😁
