From the person who sent it in:
Attached is a photograph taken on august 2007 at around 2100 hours inside a tent in a Cloud Forest at the outskirts of Tegucigalpa, Honduras while we went camping and birdwatching (the photo is very silly with my wife and I making faces) but the creepy part is the red cloud that surrounds us, to this day I cannot explain what is going on there, I cant say if its supernatural or light having its way or dust or whatever—I saw your blog and thought it would be nice to share the photo with the rest of the world.
On the area the photo was taken about a 100 years back it was a silver and gold mine and as people recall lots of workers died there so that could be an “explanation”. The state of the photo is as it was taken without any doctoring whatsoever and I took the picture.

I don’t think it’s anything paranormal…it looks like motion blur and possibly something from the flash bouncing off something else and because the iris is probably quite wide it lets too much light in and causes a red blur. If you were holding the camera the flash may have caught part of you hand..that would explain why it goes around your face because your hands wouldn’t be that close to the lens itself. To see what i mean shine a torch through a finger and see what sort of red it produces (do it in the dark).

there is no note for if this started life as a digital image or not. If it was film this could be caused by the media not being processed correctly, or being damaged prior to processing.

Hi there!
Im Danny and I took the photo
The photo is digital…taken on a Sony cibershot or some model or other. Yes, i was holding the camera with one hand….maybe its not paranormal or anything like that….then again It creeped us out when we saw the photo that same night.
Cheers!

Query. The light on the chaps head, is it on at all? I know it looks out (might not even be a light!) but could it have been on even dimly?

I can’t imagine what else that would be on his forehead, and it looks like it’s on. I don’t know much about LED lamps, but some white lamps use separate red, green and blue elements – it’s possible that the red element is somehow catching the lens, here.

Não sou especialista em fotografias, mas esse efeito pode ter sido decorrente da barraca (vc falou que tirou a foto no interior de uma barraca). Há algum tempo também tirei uma foto no interior de uma barraca e tive um efeito muito parecido com esse, todo avermelhado.

This happened to me once, I thought it was some bad peyote. Maybe it’s a ghost peyote.
March 20, 2009 at 5:09 pm |
achei muito boa as fotos parecem ser verdadeiras,mas e algo a ser estudado…

Another perfect explanation for different colours of our energy levels. They were so connected at that time that their aurea was very strong by giving them a red energy around them. Red is the energy colour of love!
I bet they had a perfect moment together!

WTF… never heard of that, can you please post some more info on your comment.

4 opções:
1 – A camera pegou reflexos no momento;
2 – Tinha fumaça com luz em volta;
3 – Photoshop
4 – A menstruacao dela veio que veio!!!!

SÓ UMA COISA A SER DITA.
DEDO NO FLASH.
March 20, 2009 at 6:57 pm |
Nada haver esta foto, isso esta longe de ser um fantasma concordo com vocês dedo no flash, por estar no interior de uma barraca …. menos a possilidade de um fantasma….
March 20, 2009 at 8:21 pm |
KKKKKKKKKK… ESSA TA RIDICULA!!!
March 20, 2009 at 8:31 pm |
ha eu acho que estas fotos são efeito de luz esta e a maneira que se pode explicar,fantasma pode existir mas não houve foto aki que tivesse alguma certa credibilidade que poderia mostrar a existencia de fantasma.eu acredito que existe mas eu não estou afim de ver nenhum.aki na minha cidade(brasil)uma vizinha de um predio me contou que todas as pessoas que morava neste predio mudava rapidamente pq não aguentava houvir luzes acendendo,barulho de pratos caindo,quando a pessoa chegava la nada tinha caido,e ouvia barulho de pessoas andando no predio,a ultima pessoa que morou la contou para ela que viu um cara tudo sujo pedindo para que a familia saisse e a mulher deu um grito e desmaiou ,quando ela acordou obrigou a familia que mudasse rapidamente do predio,depois disto ninguem morou la e o predio ficou abandonado,este fato aconteceu 5 anos atras,hoje o predio de dois andares foi demolido e estão construindo um supermecado.esta historia e veridica a vizinha contou que o dono do predio antes de morrer era muito mal,e quando estava morrendo disse que nunca iria sair do predio,porque gostava muito deste predio.tchau pessoal… there is I think these pictures are light effect this and the way that it can her explicar,fantasma can exist but there was not picture aki to have some certain credibility that could show the existence of fantasma.eu believe that it exists but I am not similar of seeing nenhum.aki in my neighboring cidade(brasil)uma of a building told me that all of the people that it lived at this building changed pq quickly didn’t tolerate houvir lights acendendo,barulho of plates caindo,quando the person la arrived anything had caido,e heard people’s noise walking in the predio,a person that la lived finishes told for her that saw a guy everything dirty asking so that the family came out and the woman gave a scream and you/he/she fainted, when she woke up forced the family to change quickly of the predio,depois of this nobody la lived and the building was abandonado,este fact happened 5 years atras,hoje the building of two floors was demolished and they are building a supermecado.esta recounts and truthful the neighbor counted that the owner of the building before dying waspessoal..

I have a similar photo, taken in the “red light barrio” – in Holand.
Were you there too?

Hi folks! In my opinion, ghosts, ovnis, ETs, conspiration teories represents just one thing: The need to believe in something!
March 27, 2009 at 4:44 pm |
Not paranormal by any means.
March 27, 2009 at 8:22 pm |
I think it is a strange light effect caused by flash
March 27, 2009 at 11:17 pm |
This reminds me of ‘smoky’ photos caused by a reflective surface and i notice the gent is wearing a head torch that might fit the bill, but why it’s red, I really don’t know. Were either of you wearing a red reflector of any type?
March 28, 2009 at 6:12 pm |
Judging by ur grins hell can’t be that bad really
March 29, 2009 at 1:56 am |
Its the flash bouncing off of the reflector in the blokes head lamp.
March 29, 2009 at 4:42 pm |
Thoes headlamps have red led’s on the 2 outer sides, they are prolly on, and pointing into the lens, causing distortion
March 29, 2009 at 7:04 pm |
Ah, that’ll be the red reflective surface I was looking for!
March 30, 2009 at 1:33 pm |
Flash bounce.
March 31, 2009 at 3:12 pm |
Maybe someone farted and its the surrounding gas captured on camera…
April 22, 2009 at 10:59 pm |
Flash, red reflector, camera fail.
August 29, 2009 at 6:58 am |
let’s not forget they were in a tent…you know for extra redness
September 18, 2009 at 1:19 pm |
More than likely your auora rather than a ghost
April 5, 2010 at 7:17 pm |
Actually, this is kind of interesting. Not only is there a red fog in the foreground, but you can also see it in the background on the left going behind the people and the tent. If this were edited, you would see evidence of this quite easily.If it were some kind of light refraction, you wouldn’t see that background effect.

Great picture but you guys were bird watching? Are you sure you were not attending a rave? She looks like she’s rollin and you have the squirts.
