The Gate Keeper

[garryg63]

Took this pic in an old antique store in ,SW. At the time we were the only ones there and my daughter had just messaged me to see where we were. Rather than call her i decided to take this pic as she knows the place and it wasnt until that night while going through my pictures that i noticed her. She is at the end of the hall, looking to my right and seems to have no feet? can anyone explin or offer some kind of explanation as to what i have captured?

There seems to be a light coloured pole on a base - below the child.  Perhaps she's a manequin, considering there are kids things in the store plus other articles of clothing.   

I'd send a copy to the owner of the store and ask if they have (or had) any such child-like manequins/dolls etc.

Sure looks like a little kid, but I'm not sure....I don't have the computer skills to blow the pic up.   The head of the kid may actually be something further back on the shelf.   
 Gary or Saturn may be able to make that part of the pic bigger.  I would like to see of it is a group of items that are giving the illusion of a child.   

Great pic.

I have done some analysis of this image.  Again, it's a phone image.  That's not a plus.  Immediately there is lots of info that I don't have access to because the phones don't provide it.

However, I am taking it as red (read?) that

a. the picture is genuine i.e. not touched up with photoshop etc
b. the photographer genuinely did not notice anyone else in the store

I have produced 10 variations of the 'girl'.  I'll give each some thought and produce a report on my findings. I need to think if there are any other tests I can do.....

cool

[lotsakids]

looks like a barstool or similar with something draped over it..

i have a funny feeling i have seen this photo before somewhere

[GaryTheDemon]

Well, here's my 'official' report.

Image Analysis Report

Such an indepth review takes time and I need to eat - just like normal people.

So as my Videoscape Productions website says, i offer this service usually at a cost of only AUD$20.

I am providing this report as a sample and welcome ANY feedback.....

good job GTD...

[catseyes]

Thank you Gary, that was really cool.

Looks like a doll to me.

[Salt Breeze]

As usual - a detailed and interesting evaluation from the Demon. 

I'll still go with manequin (or doll as you suggest Christine). 

[raspberryswirl]

wow - very impressive analysis, GTD.

[Saturn]

This one has me beat. The image is just too tiny to get much detail out of so any analysis by me could be plain wrong.

However, to take a stab at it, I see signs of motion blur with a couple of parallel lines through the "dress", though these could be a design pattern.

I suspect slow shutter due to indoor shot as I see no signs of flash. If the feet were moving at the time of slow shutter it could explain why they don't appear clearly. But it's really too low res to make an accurate judgment.

Interesting though!

Thanks for your assessment gary. I took the photo on an apple iphone so i apologise for the poor quality. Though my intention was not to take an award winning photo but simply to show my 11 year old daughter (who had text me) where we were and what we were up to. A photo seemed the easiest way to explain to her. There was a man woman and 2 children  (both boys) in front of us and my partner asked me to wait till they had moved  before i took the picture so my daughter had a clear view.They moved into one of the rooms on the left which left no one in our view. Of this we are both certain. I have also sent this image to a local specialist in the area and have passed on your assessment for him to look at. He has visited the site and taken pictures of the same area and while all the items in the picture are still present the girl is not. His images are very clear and you can see them in both pictures. I hope he makes contact with you and between you both you might come up with some info. Thanks for your assistance it is greatly appreciated.
