Discuss photo: don't know what this is

Well man, I honestly do not see the original image and EXIF information of it, I would not give a conclusive opinion. Looks like maybe smoke a cigar? a hug

I can't tell you what it is but I can tell you it isn't. There's no data because its not a digital image. It's old school 35mm film. I wish to god I had the negatives . It isn't smoke of any kind because we are actually on a dirt road with no one else but me and the driver. Both are non smokers and the vehicle had no exhaust issues. Whatever it is it was not in view at the time the pic was taken and only showed when the film was developed.

Wow. That is scary. O_O

In this case inexplicabe. Anyway, it's a shame that you may have no data with which to certify that fact.

certify? Why would I need to do that? Maybe I need to clear something up. I am not one of those who feels the need to validate anything. I posted it because it's interesting..nothing more. What I can do is tell you that if you go to this place (KIngsley Plantation in the Jacksonville Florida area close to Mayport Navel Base on Blount Island) You definitely will walk away with at least some evp and most likely some weird photos (if your camera will work there..sometimes power drains happen and the equipment won't come back up until you leave the area and are well down the road).
You want proof..over the years I have found the best way is to go there..do that for yourself.
BTW..when this photo was taken my 20 dollar wal-mart camera took it. A person I took out there had a very nice nikkon digital and brought her husbands cannon too. Neither would work and most of the film in my camera was really shot even though we bought it brand new. Interesting thing about that is they worked everywhere else...at IHOP, the beach..my apartment....just not there.

With that being said I wish I knew how to upload the evp I have from there to this site. Maybe that would certify that there is definitely something to what I posted. All else fails go there yourself..I really recommend it. Best time to catch something is between the end of may and about the 3rd week of august. There are park rangers that patrol but as long as you don't try to climb fences or do anything stupid they're cool..and have tales of their own.

Amanda, Groupo Alpha is from Spain. There may be a little language barrier issue going on here. So cool off, have fun, enjoy. No one is attacking you.

I didn't think they were. I still recommend a trip out there. I'm not upset but I did feel maybe it was best to clarify I'm not a ghost hunter that goes for proof...

It is always hard to validate mists in the foreground of a photo. A camera flash can do really funky things outdoors with even simple water vapor/dew in the air.

Quick question: Help us understand why the photo was taken. People waste digital snaps all the time because they are free. Film that has to be developed is usually used more conservatively. This appears that without the mist it would have been a random photo of a dark tree line. What where you taking a picture of?

I was hoping to get a sunset shot of some of the trees. They have vines and stuff tangles in them and it looked really cool. Unfortunately you can't see it.. I to this day do not own a digi camera and prefer film. Guess I'm retro....
