Boo! (Explored)

Iceberg floating near the Hubbard Glacier, Alaska

The Sunday Challenge: Pareidolia, a psychological phenomenon involving a stimulus (an image or a sound) wherein the mind perceives a familiar pattern of something where none actually exists.

I saw a ghostly apparition emerging from the depths. It was either waving at me or doing the backstroke.

Oh this is a lovely shot Esther.Is it a whale..is it a ghost? Don't know about backstroke, - but I might have been back-peddling out of there if I came across this when I wasn't wearing my glasses. Lol! Well spotted and identified Esther.
