i like the idea...but personally find the people a tad too faint, even for portraying ghosts..took me awhile to see them..unless that's your intention

thanks for the comments
I don't know if the meaning of ghost would be conveyed as well if the 'people' were clearer.

I'll find the time to do this again with a higher shutter speed and see if it works

you need a more eerie setting

 

[radedward]

yeah but eerie setting don't have as much human traffic to shoot this
unless they have good amount of real ghost traffic

you need a more eerie setting

Agreed, the people in the photo look more like wisps than ghosts. =D
Maybe you could call it: Ghosts of Ghosts.

do a self portraits.

get a touch, place around your belly, shine up onto your face and upper body for one or two sec.

now you will have a half body ghost image in the picture.

This was done by first getting a few (relatively) long exposure shots
Then you combine them using layers.
you can also use the HDR function in CS2 to do this.
