Ghost in the drivers seat!
Okan writes, "I have just explored your site on the internet today and found
it quite interesting indeed. After I saw the photos on your ghost gallery, I
suddenly remembered two of my photos which were taken almost two years ago.
On that day, I was on a photo trip with one of my friends around the oldest
part of İstanbul (Turkey) and we had just found out that deserted-looking,
dusty old Chevrolet parked beside the road in a region called Cankurtaran. I
asked my friend to take a photo of me by the car and he had taken two
photos. In the first photo, as I was standing by the car but I never
realized that there was that figure of a fat bald man sitting at the front
seat holding the steering wheel. And in the last photo, I was just cleaning
up the dusty mirror on the left as the figure turned into a skeleton looking
either at me or the mirror, I don't know. After we finished our photo
session, we went to develop the film and had the contact prints of the whole
work. These two photos which I am sending now attached to this email are
scanned from that smallest prints. My friend and I realized the ghostly
figure in these photos while we were choosing our best shots from the
contact samples. And we both decided not to have larger prints of that
Chevrolet just because of the scary figure. Maybe that figure belonged to
the long time dead owner whom loved his car more than a peaceful rest, who
knows. Why should a ghost want to look at a mirror? Maybe it wasn't a good
idea to clean up that dusty mirror, was it?... What is your comment on this
incident? I hope to hear from you soon. Thanks and congratulations."
