Curious digital image of self
Here's a
100% crop from a self-portrait that I snapped more than
two years ago in which I seem to have become partially translucent.
You could say it's a double exposure but my digicam does not have that
feature. What do you make of it?
If you're passing through Malaysia, I can show you the original file on a
memory card.
Notwithstanding this curiosity, may you all remain well and happy!

What do you make of it?
Is this an isolated instance or are we talking Father Brennan from the Omen?
open to all ideas about it.
I brought this up because a worshiper at a catholic church on
the front pew vanished from my view for a few seconds while she
was deep in prayer.
A Buddhist friend once related how her friend disappeared from
view while they were in the same room. Apparently said friend was
meditating when she became invisible.
An engineer friend told me he had locked a monocular in a glass
case only to have the instrument disappear from sight: he was
the only one who had the key. You can imagine his surprise when
the monocular reappeared several months later.
By chance I stumbled upon an intriguing reference to what the writer
called HUMAN SPONTANEOUS INVOLUNTARY INVISIBILITY.
Have any of you had similar inexplicable experiences of this nature?
And the other two - any more detail?
I have no details of this reported encounter since I wasn't present at the time.
Ditto for the monocular that returned mysteriously to the owner: I only have
the word of an otherwise rational neighbor and contractor.
As for my own experience, I was new to the church and sat on a back pew
during a short service. I recall that when the worshiper vanished from sight,
she was at the first pew and kneeling on a cushion hinged to the back of
the front panel, one with the usual shelves for supporting Bibles etc.
I could clearly see the hitherto obscured upper shelf when the worshiper
vanished. She 'winked out' and back into existence in no more than five
seconds and couldn't have bent down for the typical cramped space
between pews: I would have noticed the movement.
Just as I write this I recall reading in a print article yonks how
Matthew Manning once had a Beatles LP record mysteriously materialize
in his home and thought that the owner would soon miss it.
What a strange and magickal universe we live in, what?
Something to look out for going forward.
But the vertical lines are actually portions of the plastered brickwall and
wooden frame of a doorway a short distance behind me. And I recall
sitting as still as I could before the shutter clicked for the timed shot.
Perhaps physical laws may not necessarily act the way we have always
assumed they would?
