Shannon from Pennsylvania

"This picture was taken in May of 2008 at my aunt and uncle's 25th anniversary party held at my other aunt's house (which used to be my grandparents house, both of which are deceased). It was taken on a black and white disposible camera by my 8 year old daughter. (She does not have blonde hair or bangs.) She was taking a picture of my cousin's daughter outside on a hot, sunny day. Some have said it could be smoke from a cigarrete but it looks like possibly hair to me. Like I said my daughter is NOT a blonde and does NOT have bangs. Some of my aunts and uncles believe that my grandparents have been making themselves known on many different occasions as well."
 
I would like to point out that this is not hair. Hair would not look like that. It would be more stringy and not as foggy. It's most likely not hair.
 
    What I believe it could be is ectoplasm, or mist. Most paranormal investigators believe that this mist is one sign of a ghost trying to manifest itself, or make contact with the living. Other signs include vortices, orbs, cold spots and hot spots.
 
    Some things that get mistaken for ectoplasm is smoke, breath and steam. The mist that Shannon submitted could be smoke. People were smoking at the party, but not near this picture. (Could the smoke have gotten caught in the picture anyway? You decide.) The mist could not be breath because as Shannon said, it was hot out, not cold. The mist is not likely to be steam, unless the picture was taken above a pot of boiling water, and I doubt that.
