Photo October Day 31: Stop

In the spirit of Halloween, I decided to take a ghostly photo. Inadvertently, I ended up spooking myself in the process...

Warning: creepy photo ahead! (if you choose to stare too long at it; or else it might actually look like nothing :P )






Ready?






Did you see the ghostly apparition telling you to STOP?

I didn't quite understand why the photo turned out this way...at first I was wondering why I wasn't in there! (yep, I'm the ghostly apparition) After I noticed the ghostly figure I switched on the light to take a good look at the photo, the light refused to switch on for a few seconds. -_- Good thing I'm a believer in logical explanations.

After thinking it out a bit, I figured out that I had probably moved before the photo was completely shot. So I tried taking it again, staying in position for a longer time, and this time it worked like I wanted.







It's not quite dark enough for my liking... Still, it's a STOP! photo all right... ;P

This is one of the things I like about the photo challenge...it makes me think of strange things to do, that I wouldn't ever have done otherwise. (or maybe I'm just a little kid :P ) So, we'll start the new challenge tomorrow!
