I always shoot the photos for my covers - so when the temperatures "soared" about 45 degrees last week, I decided to drive around the country roads and find the perfect picture. I came across a really old cemetery -- okay Midwest Illinois old - graves from the early 1800s - that was pretty neglected. One of the gravestones had a tree growing up around it. PERFECT! So, I climbed up the embankment through a snow drift and snapped away. I took a bunch of shots from different angles. Then I toured the cemetery - so cool - and went on my way.

I got home and started to edit and found something interesting in one of the photos. After changing my photos to greyscale and cropping them to the right size, I Photoshop some blurs in to the photos to create a "ghostie" look. But this photo came pre-blurred. Hmmmmmmm...

I checked the other images I took from different angles - same blur in all of the angles. I went back that night - with my husband - at dusk to take more photos. First I wanted one of the area of the blur - jsut to be sure there wasn't an old spiderweb in there that caught the sun. No - nothing.

Then I took some other shots. When I got home, I found one with my husband standing next to the tree and the gravestone with a bunch of orbs circling around him.
