Almost at once, a large face jumps out at us. With its long hair, mustache and and beard, it looks like a familiar portrait of a Jesus-like figure in profile. But that's just an illusion.</blockquote><div style="height: 2px; font-size: 2px; background: #dcdcdc; border-bottom: solid 1px #f5f5f5; margin: 2px 4px;"></div><blockquote style="text-align: left; padding: 0px 8px; margin: 4px 0px 8px 0px; background: transparent; border: none;" cite="http://paranormal.about.com/od/ghostphotos/ig/Seeing-Things/Jesus-or-Child-.htm">Look more carefully, and the Jesus face is actually a small child, dressed in white, sitting on the man's lap.</blockquote><div style="height: 2px; font-size: 2px; background: #dcdcdc; border-bottom: solid 1px #f5f5f5; margin: 2px 4px;"></div><blockquote style="text-align: left; padding: 0px 8px; margin: 4px 0px 8px 0px; background: transparent; border: none;" cite="http://paranormal.about.com/od/ghostphotos/ig/Seeing-Things/Jesus-or-Child-.htm">The child's white cap forms the figure's forehead, and the child's right sleeve and arm form his nose and mustache</blockquote></div><div style="margin: 0px 6px 6px 4px;"><table style="font-size: 11px;border-spacing: 0px;padding: 0px;" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" width="100%"><tr><td style="background:transparent;border-width:0px;padding:0px;"> </td><td align="right" style="background:transparent;border-width:0px;padding:0px;width:107px" width="107"><a href="http://clipmarks.com/share/8A4EFA3E-1158-4AA3-9ACD-1526572224FA/blog/" title="blog or email this clip"><img src="http://content7.clipmarks.com/images/c2b-foot.png" border="0" alt="blog it" width="107" height="17" style="border-width:0px;padding:0px;margin:0px;" /></a></td></tr></table></div></div>
