A woman who took a picture of raging inferno burning her land got more than she expected when she managed to snap what she claims is a fiery ghost.
Jeanette Empey was watching wildfire rampaging through her land in Idaho when she stopped to take a picture, accidentally snapping what appears to be a cloaked figure standing in the smoke.
She’s now convinced that the imposing figure was a guardian angel who was there to protect firefighters who were trying to quench the blaze.
Posting on Facebook, she wrote:
Check out this photo. If you look closely you can see the ‘fireman’s guardian. A ghostly figure floating above the tree. I love it.
The wildfire that firefighters were battling had torn through Ms Empey’s 50,000-acre land in Henry’s Creek.
But despite the damage being done to her land it was the spooky figure hovering near the firemen that left her rattled.
Jeanette added:
In the first photograph there is a real live fireman standing near a tree. You can see his yellow coat. In the second photo I zoomed in on the first photo and you can see the guardian ghost in the cloud.
