The Ghost of Point Algiers

click images to enlarge



Ghost stories abound here in New Orleans. I took this picture on the Westbank, just underneath what locals here call the Crescent City Connection. The pic is a ten minute exposure on my 4x5 Crown Graphic press camera.

Today I convinced a number of people at work that the ghost leaning againt the column was real. In fact, it's just my friend Shaun. He stood there for about a minute, and then I "painted" him with a flashlight for a couple of seconds.

Presto! Ghost sighting!
