Description
Two weeks ago I went to Tennessee to see an old friend I hadn't seen in 5 years, provide concert sound services for his band, and shoot photos of them as they played.
The location was an old sawmill, nestled high up in the mountains of Virginia, in a little town called Damacus, which is just a few miles from the Virginia/Tennessee border.
At one point, I stepped outside for a bit of fresh air, It was cold and mildly windy that night (very mildly), so I was the only person hanging out in front of the building at the time these photos were captured, except for two ladies walking toward their vehicle. I figured I'd grab a few photos of the outside of the building, as well as maintain a photographic record of just how full the parking lot was. There were approximately 100 people there to see the band and dance their buns off.
These 3 images were taken 3-5 seconds apart from each other, outside the main entrance to the place. There was no fog anywhere to be seen, as you can see by the middle image, yet the two images that show any part of the old sawmill (the topmost and bottom) appear to have fog floating around the entrance.
Well, there was NO visible fog at the time of the captures.
Apparitions perhaps? I don't know, but I was using a Nikon D50 outfit, which is a digital camera, therefore bad film stock isn't an issue. I don't know. Very strange indeed!
Thanks for looking, have a hauntingly wonderful day in any event!

condensation steam on your lens ? (in what order have the 3 pictures been taken ? :~)
tmathise
The order was 1 = top, 2 = middle, and 3 = bottom, all taken within a 15-20 second period, so condensation is highly unlikely as a factor, unless it accumulated, evaporated, then re-condensed with that time.

Was it a no-smoke area? LOL No I am as baffled as you are!

Troy: If you came from a hot bar into the night, my guess would be that you had some mild condensation on the sensor that only lasted for a few seconds, hence the foglike image. Nice shots and intro. Don

I belong to a few websites that would LOVE this stuff. me, I still think it's fog. Cameras are more sensitive to certain frequencies than our eyes. Ok, I have no idea what I'm talking about.

Amazing what the camera shows up sometimes...makes ya wonder about that fog...gotta be some technical anomaly, I know, but I prefer to think it's ghosties and ghoulies and things that go bump in the night mwhahahaha...good captures whatever it is XOX

Me guesses it's donallison13 being close to it, sometimes weird phenomenons can be explained simply with some extra knowledge about things happening there. It's great to discover things when looking back though!

Ooooh...spooky!! I think they are spirits of past cowboys who came to this place to party..hehehe Or past workers from the sawmill gathering to see what all the noise is about. :-) Great captures and very intriguing. ;-) clink clank clink

From 3 to 5 seconds between takes? Well, it can't be the camera. You my friend had visitors. Good capture of the unknown. HUGS!!

Wind blowing away from the camera? looks like condensation from your breath to me... you said it was cold. Explanation for the shot without the "fog" - you were breathing in... explanation for not seeing it - who is going to see breath condensation through a viewfinder? Thats how i explain it =)
