Yeah, I know. We all want to see real ink-blots for our Alamo. LOL.

It resembles one of those 19th Century "ghost" photos created through double-exposure by "mediums" and "spiritualists". Frauds all of them, but I dont think this picture is a hoax. At first glance, the niche on the right seems to contain a three-dimensional figure - I felt a "Chris Matthews" tingle rising up my leg when I looked at it.
And then I looked at it again.
Nothing there. Just a combination of light, shadow, stains and smudges.
Its still a pretty amazing photo.
Actually, that tingle I felt was a globule of ectoplasm. Or maybe an aural projection of primordial spiritual energy.

It is a striking effect. The one on the right really, really looks like a statue, with a big nose and chin.
But the thing on the left looks like a statue of the ghost of a Christmas tree. Not the sort of Santo I would go downtown to look at. I began to lose confidence in the interpretation of these things as statues at that point. My ectoplasm ran off with my protoplasm.
