*squints at it*

It's obviously two free Neatorama T-shirts.

*Really would love a Neatorama T-Shirt, as she only visits the site RELIGIOUSLY on the hour*

If you look carefully, the light is arrayed on several different pillars, and different depths and angles in the photo. It's really nothing more then our brains associating several random shapes that happen to be squashed together as a familiar outline. Now, if the whole 'ghost angel' were floating in front of the pillars, or was on the floor or a flat wall, it would be quite different. We see what we want to see. Theres no use arguing about the direction of the light being impossible- it's obviously comming from several different sources, and the angel is brilliant, otherwise it would look like several window-shapes next to one another. And if the 'photo experts' can't figure it out, they are obviously not experts. ;)

My Aunt tells a story of a friend of hers who took a picture of the clouds out of an airplane window. She got the pictures developed (back in the days when digital was just getting started) and when the picture came back, Jesus was standing in the middle of the clouds, plain as day, in vibrant, living colour. My Aunt later discovered that developers will occasionally add Jesus to cloud pictures as a running inside joke.

In any case, it's certainly interesting and amusing to think that people will freak out over rays of light. Guess theres still some innocence in the world.

. . .And that's what's really neat about this picture :P
