“My pals have been having images as very well and they did not see it both — till I looked back again at my pictures,” Kimberly defined. “Some persons are saying curtains — the curtains are the correct similar in each and every window, they are see-by, and if it was curtains, what is the dim spot that seems like hair, and the skin tone colour? That are not able to be a shadow.”

The image/cutout/figure seems to be quite flat and not like a bodily individual standing there.
