An interesting job at a haunted castle this week. Very friendly and helpful staff there, but sadly this doesn't extend to the top brass. Like another guardian of our heritage they seem to delight in making life difficult for photographers. So my office wanted pictures to illustrate the well documented ghost stories at a certain property, but the top brass decided to throw as many spanners in the works as possible. My job is to always come back with a photo wherever possible, and thats something I take very seriously.

This was shot in infra red as thats what was requested. I can't pretend the ghostly presence appeared on my film after it was developed or that I just happened to get lucky and spot her walking through the wall at the precise moment I arrived.
It is of course a bit of photoshop and in-camera trickery. I'll let you into a little secret-the ectoplasmic stream just visible in front of the ghostly lady is in fact my assistant/friend Bob Caddick moving as fast as he can away from the wall during a long 1 second camera exposure!
