Picton Ghost Photo Analysis

By , About.com Guide

In January, 2010, this photo, taken by Renee English, was widely publicized as possibly showing two ghosts of children. It was taken in St. Mark's Cemetery in Picton, NSW, Australia on January 9, 2010. The cemetery has a reputation for being haunted. According to local legend, the two children might be David Shaw and Blanche Moon, who died 60 years apart.

There are some anomalies and elements in this photo worth examining. This analysis won't (can't) prove whether or not the children in the photos are ghosts, but let's take a closer look.
