Default Oddities?

OK, here's a thread for ya. Looking back through your photo collection, what really weird photos do you have? I'm talking tricks of the light, timing flukes and other pure accidents - the sort of thing you would only have found out about in the past after you got your film developed.

C'mon - let's see 'em! Post 'em here for everyone to see, but please, no photochops beyond resizing or drawing bright red arrows on stuff to make something bleedin' obvious.

P.S. This is going to be a sticky as I'm betting it'll be a long, drawn-out affair (assuming anyone bothers posting to it at all)...

I'll get things rolling with this little effort. This was taken in the lift at the observation tower on the U.S. side of Niagara Falls the last time we went in 2005. If I remember correctly, I had took shot as the display was reading 100% capacity - I thought it would be a neat thing to shoot.

After I pushed the button, I couldn't believe what it showed on the screen of my S230. My bet is that it flicked back and forth between 80 and 100% while the shutter was open - if you look at the EXIF data, it was open for 1/4 of a second, after all.

The result is pretty cool, I reckon.

LOL - what a great start! 80%, 90% (with 100%) would all have made that (if superimposed). I'd guess 80/100 would be the most likely though since the "bulb" at the "front" of the possible 9 is lit. Then again, if you all JUMPED when this was being photographed, 30% could have gotten merged in. And if you all jumped and got this good of a photo at 1/4sec shutter speed, then I want to get your stabilizer!
