You nailed the first two but I think you might want to try again on the ghost image. To me, you didn't make the girl into a ghost, it just looks blurred to me. When I did this, I set my camera on a tripod and started the slow exposure and then walked through the scene. You could barely see me....more like a streak then a ghost.

I agree with Mary.

Well actually she was sitting there and I had 4 people walking past her back and forth. I used her sitting there to show her and that the people walking back and forth were "ghosted". Does that make sense?

Well, your idea was good but with her being blurred, it just makes me think she 'ran' into the scene during the exposure. I would have preferred to have seen her walking through the scene and more of a ghost then she is now. You would have had to make sure she sat absolutely still during the exposure in order to have be able to make out a bit of your ghost. Remember..this is a way to get pictures of images without people, moving cars, etc...in the final photo. Architecture photographers use this method to take an image of a landmark without having people, cars in it.

I never thought of trying to walk thru my own photo. :rolleyes: I need to try that.
