I took this photograph at a small cave, known colloquially as "Merlin's Cave", near Pistyll Rhaeadr Waterfall in Powys, and was interested to see some peculiar "photographic anomalies" in and above the water in the cave when I looked back at the photo. There would seem to be streaks of light in the cave that do not appear in other photos taken of the cave.
Interesting features:
These combined with the photographic anomaly begin to form a supernatural narrative with intimate links to place and folk beliefs.
This sort of photographic anomaly would generally be classified as evidence of "rods" or "skyfish", but might also be interpreted to demonstrate the existence of discarnate spirits, extraterrestrial/dimensional entities, nature energy, fairies, etc.
Of course it is entirely possible that these "anomalies" could in fact be insects, but they remain interesting nevertheless.
Photographic anomalies do occur and they provide ambiguous stimuli for interpretation by the observer. These streaks could be interpreted in any number of ways.
I do not know what they are, but through considering them insights into the structure of supernatural narratives can potentially be gleaned.
Interesting features:
- Site known colloquially as "Merlin's Cave" - connotations with magic
- Site of natural beauty
- Autumn a couple of days before Hallowe'en
