17th century ghost soldier caught on camera

Is this the ghost of a 17th century soldier caught on camera in St James Cemetery?

A ghostly figure caught on camera in St James Cemetery could be that of a 17th century soldier, it has been claimed. The eerie shape seen hovering between headstones was captured by a ghost hunter while on a walk around the ‘haunted’ burial ground.
In the picture, taken by Louisa Farrell, the spooky sight appears to be wearing plate armour dating from the Civil War era.

The armour, which would cover the chest and arms and which had elbow protection, was widely used by most armies until the end of the 17th century, for both foot and mounted troops.

Many soldiers in the historic period would wear three quarter suits of armour, with their legs uncovered and in the picture the chilling white shape seems to be in keeping with the tradition.

So robots do die do they (?) I always wondered about that. Of course you mean a 'sentient' robot don't you , not a dumb arse soul less floor cleaning bot.

This images looks like there is more than one image causing conflicting possibilities. It doesn't look to much like what they claim to see.

No, just a basic Hoover I named Kevin.. There was bashing & thumping one night & went to the kitchen & the oven was going mental!!
I said you've just woken me up you noisy feker.. Dave the oven said: 'fek me Kev's come back"!!!!
I said get out of it, don't BS me!
But I do remember Kev saying many years ago that there's power after malfunction.. So who knows.
Maybe I should attempt filming it?? What do you think, Aug me ol' mate?
Of course I don't believe it so I could always CGI it I guess & put it on youtube claiming it to be real 'power after malfunction' footage

I first thought it looked like an image taken looking through glass showing a reflection of possibly the photographer but they are outside...

I was thinking it was thru glass as well......but it looks like overlapping images too.

Well we only have their word it was taken outside....and their credibility is lacking so far.

A lot of people taking these images don't seem to actually 'see it' at the time the photo was taken. Its only on reflection after the event that they realise that its not all what it seems to be on the photograph. Digital is a far better way for capturing ghostly images.
