I know this sounds like something Voldemort would start, Before I get panned, I don't actually believe in things like this but it is weird and I thought I'd share it... I am assured that Photoshop has nothing to do with it, though I'm sceptical about that.

Here's the photo:

Someone I know quite well knows one of the girls who are in this photo - they stayed in a house in Northampton. You will notice the little girl on the right is crying. When asked why she was crying, she told them that something 'pulled her hair', in response to which she was told no one pulled her hair. The eagle-eyed amongst you may have spotted what turned up in the photo already; if you open it in an image editor and zoom, between the legs of the second and third girls from the left, you can see what appears to be a face.

If you don't know how to zoom or can't, the image is here.

Like I said, I don't believe in it, but it provided some interesting conversation (and some very freaked out faces) on the pub, so I thought I'd post it.

If anything the crying girl looks photoshopped. She looks very 'pasted in'.

I mean, isn't it odd that there she is crying her eyes out and not one of the girls is reacting to it?

That was my first thought - how nasty are all those girls posing and showing off for the picture while a little kid is obviously very upset? Its a total fake one way or another, you should know better Topher.

Well... true. I did say I don't believe in things like this.

I don't think the light falls differently on the little girl - if you look where the light is coming from, it seems to be consistent with where she's standing. I do think the girl is actually in the photo and yes, the other girls must have been nasty to have stood there and not taken any notice of her crying... it's the weird face thing that I don't think is real.

I don't agree Topher - I think the crying girl has been photoshopped in, the position looks too 'easy' - she's not behind anything, no shadows falling on her etc.
She also seems a little too big too - if you worked out where her feet would be i wouldn't be suprised if they were on a different level to the girls feet.
And yea - there is something with the lighting that doesn't quite feel right, i think the shadows are too harsh in comparision to the rest of the room although I don't think there's anything wrong with the skin colour.

I consider myself to be of sound mind, and fail to understand the excitment behind a randomly rucked up curtain tail.... As with Dom's 'jesus towel' from a few years ago, it is merely suggestive assumption by your own wee brain.... (.) (.) may portray a set of boobs to some..... In reality, its just awful grammer!!!

Hmm, I don't know, I was told a few weeks ago, but you are probably correct.

If you can tell that's Family Fortunes, you need to get out more Miss Lalottie.

I dunno, let's see if we can Photoshop you in with them...
