Before I post the actual photo, let me tell you the back story.
I was at my mother's in Florida last July. It was raining heavily so I went out back to take pictures. I was focusing on a tree across a narrow canal behind my mother's house. I shot the photo because I liked the tree.
Well, I didn't examine that photo until last week. I'm almost ready to go to a paranormal organization with it!!! I swear, I did NOTHING to this photo. No photoshopping whatsoever. The only thing I did is enlarge it so you can see this "THING" that is in front of the tree on the left.
What is it? I'm so frightened of it that I could hardly post it here.

#3re: This is REALLY scary.....

you mean the lettering?
I can't make it out,what does it say?
#5re: This is REALLY scary.....
Posted: 11/16/08 at 3:32pmYes, Sueleen. Perhaps I didn't enlarge it enough. It has the head and face something like a gorilla.

Skunk ape. Many sightings especially in the everglades for years now. Watch the video.His photos are VERY similar to yours.

It looks kinda drippy like a paint daub.
Either that or Satan, I can't tell.

I"m pretty sure it's a deformed skunk ape
Again, Romantico-I was hoping someone could shed light on this. It's been bothering me for days!
#11re: This is REALLY scary.....
Posted: 11/16/08 at 3:45pmI hardly think it is "paranormal". Probably a bear or a panther (they have those in Florida, don't they?) It could even be a burned tree limb or a large bird flying by...it is just too hard to tell, but I don't think it is Bigfoot or Blackbeard's ghost!

Ooh, I'm having flashbacks to when I used to watch 'Lost'! What's that lettering in the background? I can't quite make it all out. :/
HI JANE! *hugs!*

It looks a little like a flying toupee.
Were any couples fighting in the vicinity?

After watching the video that Romantico linked, I'm positive I have something valuable here, so I've removed it from the thread, although I've already printed my trademark on it.
I'm going to contact Florida wildlife society.
#15re: This is REALLY scary.....
Posted: 11/16/08 at 3:55pmWow - very interesting. I think Romantico is right.......Skunk Ape - Fascinating! Was this near the everglades?

Rotate the image 90 degrees counter-clockwise and it kind of looks like Guy Fawkes' face. With Michael Jackson's hair.
The opposite of creation isn't war, it's stagnation.

There always seems to be some kind of embarrassment when dealing with the unexplained. I never saw it or felt it.I hear about stuff like this all the time. I have an interest in the topic,so that could be why. Still, I think you should research it. Type in skunk ape on you tube and you will be amazed at the number of sightings in Florida. Same with Google. I believe this could be what you saw. Only you know what it could have been and what it could not have been.Regardless, go to

George Noory will mention it on his show.Send him the pics and he will tell you exactly who to get in contact with. For all you know someone just like you could have snapped pics of the same thing and be wondering the same as you. I am glad you posted this. Very fascinating subject for me. Good luck and keep us posted!

I have now just contacted a skunk ape organization in Florida. We'll see.
. I swear, this is so frightening. I now understand when people have these "sightings" and no one believes them. This has actually happened. I have the proof.
#20re: This is REALLY scary.....
Posted: 11/16/08 at 4:11pmI wanna see!!!!!!!
