Deceased horse appears in
smoke!
Jason writes, "This picture was
taken in the late 70's. I own this original photo and know first hand that it is
not touched up. It is developed on that textured paper with the rounded corners
that used to be so prominent in the 70's. This photo is taken of a neighbor friend by her husband the day after her best horse had died! She sat there
mourning it's death and didn't want her picture taken in her condition while
having a smoke. They didn't see it at the time, but the day they got it
developed, they rushed over and gave us this photo. They had the negative so
they gave this one to us. I remember it so well and was quite spooked being 7 or
8 years old [at the time] and still am at 30! Just look at the detail of the
head and the definition of muscles in the horse's leg. If I remember correctly,
the horse was white. The angle of the light behind the smoke with the angle of
the camera provided a perfect opportunity to be captured on film. (Image
displayed here has already been cropped electronically.)

I wrote Jason about this picture before the
Art Bell web site closed down. This is his reply. ---> Hi
Jim, Thanks for asking. It has gone around quite a bit on a few sites that
didn't bother asking. I posted it at Art Bell's and it shows up on three others
that I've found! You are the first that asked. Thank you for that. I would love
for you to use my image and explanation if you'd like. I'll do better than that
just for your asking, I'm attaching that same image and the zoomed out shot of
the entire thing. I gave these two to Art Bell, but they used only the close-up.
Enjoy, Jason
