Did anyone happen to go to Salem for Halloween? Has anyone ever been there at any time? If so, I'd love to see any pictures you might have taken, especally of any Historic Sites such as; The Wax Museum 'my what an impressive building it is', or say 'The Witch House' or any other sites from there would just be wonderful to see :D

That would be cool to see. I came across a website with pics. It looks like a lot of fun.

it could be just reflection/angling, but check out the two cloaked figures in the rear side of the black car in the right corner (yes, it would be much easier if I'd circle them!)

theres also an amazing face in the storefront window. That was what I was first drawn to, but I can't blow it up clear enough.

That's just silly... the "hooded figures" look to me like shadows under the eaves of the shops behind me as I took the photo. It's too bad I don't have a photo of that side of the cul-de-sac of shops-- that or they're hooded figures from Laurie Cabots's shop (also behind the photographer). :roll:

I know I have more photos of Salem. As I find them, I'll pull them out. I can also see what my 'rents have by way of photos when I'm up there for Turkey-Day-- they visited Salem shortly after I did.

Guess I'd better get cracking on going through old backups and organizing my hard drive.

:lol: Jade, you're right it's clearly a reflection, but you have to admit it does give the appearance of two hoods. I think it's pretty funny how the mind can be talked into seeing outlandish things. :D

-- lots of nice images.

(ps: Is it just me, or does that Pirate look like a young Donald Sutherland...?)
