One of the two men in the back of the room seems
to be transparent. The interesting thing is this ghostly man seems to be holding
a beer in his left hand. He also seems to have some mist connecting to his chest
and to his chin. His suit is very much faded to the point it can barely be spotted.
You can even see the shelves through his left shoulder. Could this be a buddy
that died but still wanted to be a part of this gathering? Let us know your
thoughts?

If one studies the picture and the blow-ups
very carefully, it's easy to ascertain that the lighting in the back of the room
is consistent all the way across the picture, yet the man just to the right of
the "mystery man" is much clearer and comes through as looking
normally lit, even though he's in the same plane as the mystery man. If the
subject figure was indeed a "flesh and blood" living person, the
lighting on him would obviously make him appear normal and solid, just like the
man to his right, instead of the dim, transparent figure we see in the photo.
I'm convinced that the photo shows something other than a living person, and I'm
also convinced that this photo wasn't faked or tampered with. The effects we see
here preclude any fakery that would have produced these results if this photo
was indeed taken in the 1940's. Larry Forty3Fan1@aol.com

well there's no way that this is a double exposure or
anything, and it seems that during war time it was very common for departed friends
to hang around for a while. Looks like this guy just wanted one last
beer with the "lad's". Seems to
peaceful for anything else.

Usually I'd rule something like this as a trick
photo, where a bunch of people pose and then one of them runs out of the frame
as the camera takes a very long exposure. There was a family portrait on here
not too long ago that was like that, making a transparent man. The catch with
photos like that, however, is that the people posing have to stay perfectly
motionless for several seconds, because any motion will be caught when the
shutter is open. So usually the people posing are very rigid, not smiling,
staring ahead. That's not so with this photo, where the men in the foreground are
posing, but not in a way that looks like it could be held for more than a few
seconds. Assuming the photo really dates from
WWII, we can rule out digital manipulation. You can't make someone transparent
with photo chemicals alone, so it's not a printing error. But in the close-up
picture, he doesn't look that transparent really, and looks more like he's just
standing in a corner with dim light. If you cut out his head, he'd look almost
normal. But that might be an artifact of scanning and not on the actual
photograph. So I'm going to have to rule this one undetermined for the time
being. Besides, if he were a real ghost, where did he get the beer, and why is
it identical to the others on the table? ^_^ gab8943@garnet.acns.fsu.edu

This is one of those photos where I would
really need to talk to someone who was there at the time the photo was taken. I
wouldn't want to make any judgment on this one without a lot of detailed
information. But, one thing I've noticed and find very odd is the beer the
"half-invisible man" is holding. bottle is reflecting the light from
the flash. You can see that a flash was used when taking the photo, it is
reflected in the mirror. This rules out a double exposure or excessive exposure
time. But, if the man is a "ghost," nobody in the bar noticed a
free-floating bottle of beer! The guys in the photo don't look THAT plowed! On
the other hand, IS THAT A BEER? Notice the shape of the chair-backs the men are
sitting in. If you look at the guy wearing the hat (yes, the one with the ears),
you will notice a man who has sunk down and seems to be trying it
"hide." Could the "beer" actually be the back of the chair
he is sitting in? I really can't tell in the photo. Good hunting, Al

Regarding
the WWII photograph, I don't think this person was living. The area just
below his neck appears to be comprised of ecto, and if you look at his left
shoulder, there are actually places in which you can see parts of the table
THROUGH him. Not possible if he's a solid human being. I think this
is the real thing, especially considering the number of deaths that occurred
during that time. Torrey

It's a bit dark, but it would be very hard to take a
picture like this given the lack of photo equipment we have today. I'd say it's
a ghost. Princesshamster@aol.com
