Ghost in My Kitchen

Although my camera can be set on manual, it has predetermined shutter speeds so it is limited in how long the shutter can be kept open. So I'm unable to do shots like light trails and star trails. However, I was pretty sure I'd be able to pull something off indoors with the lowest setting on my camera and I did! It may look like Jeff was dashing through the kitchen here, but he was actually just casually walking in to the living room and didn't even know I'd taken his picture! I put it the "autotrophic" effect to add a touch more of that ghostly aura to the shot. I think those ghost hunters on tv would be impressed.
Wow! Like a scene from Paranormal Activity!

@mzzhope Thanks Hope! It definitely reminds me of those silly shows where they take all this high-tec equipment to search out ghosts and can never find any.

This is one setting I need to play with some more. I need to get used to the ISO and speed settings

@nicolecampbell Thanks Nicole! I had to be with this one- it's one of those unfortunate limitations on my camera! But I found a way around it.
