                                | A photo that appears to capture a ghostly image of a nun on The Long Walk has been causing a stir in the city this week. 
 Local photographer Jonathan Curran was taking a series of 13 photographs of the picturesque area in an attempt to create a panoramic view when he came across something very unusual in one of his shots.

 i think its just someone standing there, how could he know she/he wasnt there before he took the shot, there are a lot of people there, did he do a head count or something

                                | How can people come to the immediate conclusion that it is a nun, Especially at that distance, come on!

                                | Compare her height to the nearest car, which is considerably closer to the camera. Even by today's standards, that's a pretty tall woman. |  |
