Ghost From The Past



I was sorting through some old negatives on the light table this week, when I spotted this pair of images of my childhood home. The film had been exposed in the early 1940's, and suffered further accidental exposure when removed from the camera.
Now the unique part: whoever took the first image (one of my parents?) moved their viewpoint to the right a bit after - shifted their weight from one foot to the other? - and snapped another shot...they had inadvertently created a stereo pair of images!
70 years later, computer software has allowed my to produce the anaglyph above - an ethereal vision of the past.

My brothers and I were the original "Wizards of Waverly Place" - 109 Waverly Place, to be exact =:o)
