Ghosting

Skeletons looking over the shoulders of museum visitors doing Ghosting
Ghosting | Genoa | 2025

Another one from the last weekend’s visit to Genoa’s Museum of Natural History. Wouldn’t these scene be considered ghosting? Maybe the skeletons noticed the Street Photographer behind the glass of a display with stuffed primates. Musesums or exhibitions are great places for some inconspicuous “street” shooting, as people with cameras (or smartphones) would not stand out much. And there are always funny juxtapositions to be captured.

Taken with my Nikon ZF and the Nikkor Z 40mm 1:2 SE, image specs 1/800 sec @ f/2 and ISO 6400, 40mm focal length. Jpg out of camera using the Zf’s default black&white mode that can be quick-selected by a dial on top of the camera.

  1. “Wouldn’t these scene be considered ghosting?” Absolutely! And there is also a visual motion in this image. I am amazed what your Nikon ZF and the Nikkor Z 40mm can do!

  2. I love this composition, Marcus! The young man in the top left seems to be looking right at you but he is not. those skeletons… 😂💀 I wish my little Z30 had a BW mode.

    1. Thanks, John! I love the way he tilts his head and his posture. The world‘s a stage 🙂 But doesn‘t the Z30 allows you via menue to dial in a monochrome Creative Picture Control?

      1. I’d have to look at the menu again, Marcus. I like the small size of the body. The 26mm lens is perfect for this body.
