Greetings everyone, and thanks for taking the time to check out my photograph.
I took this picture in South Dakota in 2007. The item in the photo was not visible to my naked eye nor through the camera viewfinder when it was taken, only days after I returned home to view my travel photos did I realize what I captured. I took four photos of the sunrise that morning, the other three pictures do not contain anything out of the ordinary.
My camera was a digital Canon Rebel XT 8mb. Exposure was 1/8th of a second and in this particular photo the flash was used (on accident actually; the camera was still set on auto from the night before).
After receiving this gift, something told me not to plaster it all over the internet; at that time it was meant for myself and inevitably the people who I showed it to over the years. Regardless of what you may perceive to be in the picture - it has changed lives.
A couple months ago, for reasons I'm sure that will come out in this thread eventually (provided there is interest) I decided to draw my interpretation of what I saw. I ran this photo through filters and changed colors and hue settings and have subsequently been shown some things within -which I am presently working to make public. However, along the way I felt the need to introduce this photo to those who have faith, so I'm kickin it up a notch. My thoughts were perhaps at an online forum I could run into people who may have some experience with photographs and things of this nature.
Thanks again for taking the time to give it a looking over, and for responding to this post if you do.
Peace

To make clear, this photo has not been manipulated in any way (outside of maybe a slight contrast enhancement). It is not something I created using a program or anything like that. I merely captured something digitally... and this is it.
