Face in Window

"This picture was taken right before I got married on 11/02/1996. In the corner of the first mirror on the left, there is a mysterious woman peering out. Since my ceremony was small, with a much larger reception planned later in the day, I know exactly who was there, and none of the people that worked the chapel that day resembled that woman either. She doesn't show up in any other picture." - Erika

Alcatraz

"In November of 2000,we arrived at Alcatraz to take the self paced tour. In the main cellblock, we were disappointed to find that the portions of the "Citadel" that were high lighted on TV, were not open to the public, citing safety concerns. We took numerous pictures of every location we had access to in search of
catching something in the lens."  

"Toward the end of the tour, we went down to what was part of the original "Citadel", that is now set up as small museums, and projector rooms, explaining the history and famous "guests" that lived there for a time. Atthe end of the main corridor that we were in, there was a barricade set up to prevent the public from venturing further into the "Citadel" area. I took some pictures toward the closed area, turned  to get some shots back toward the way we came, and viola! The gentleman in the picture was someone tryingto get out of the way of the shot, but the wall impeded his progress. Nothing that you see in the picture was there when I took the shot, since ifthere were to be something, that would be the first explanation. Looking down the corridor, the rooms to the left were originally the dungeons that were used when this was a military prison. Some the rooms still have the ring mounted to the wall where the prisoners were chained. I am not certain of the original use of the larger rooms where the chairs were set up.  Enjoy!"  - Steven
