Did you ever take a photo of your ghost?
Last night, my wife wanted to learn photography. Unfortunately I am not the pro I would like to be so teaching was limited to the camera’s basic settings , but we went in the old part of Bucharest and took some pretty interesting shots, including some very lucky shots:
The images below where shot on a tripod with 6s exposure and flash. We posed for only 1-2s and than ran out of the scene. The flash managed to freeze the most lighted parts of us (faces and hands). The rest is transparent… pretty neat? no? Also, these photos were not edited in any way. They are just what came out of the camera.
Later edit: My lucky shots above can also be considered as an easy technique to produce some Halloween ghost images. Thanks Ionut, or should I say “colega”?
Even later edit: We’ve also been featured in Photojojo, a fun newsletter with lots of photography tips&tricks. YEEEY!

Great result considering there was no editing done, just the shot taken with camera settings.
