Unless the shark's dressed and shurfing on an identical yellow board, that's a ghost. I can understand if someone were to look quickly they may think it's some sort of sea life. Though sharks don't find people yummy, they sure like to try us! But any time spent looking at the image would prove its just a flaw. I agree.

It does look like a surfer and not a shark. I had assumed that a "Ghost" needs to be an exact match not a completely different image. Matthew I agree with you.

And finally, the 'shark' is <strong>without question</strong> a guy on a surfboard. It is not a direct 'ghost' (i.e. the 'shark' doesn't appear elsewhere in the image at the same time), but I'm almost positive that it's the same surfer captured at a slightly different time. @ korg20000bc: If you click through to the main map, you’ll see that Alex’s rotated images do both appear in the original images.

I don’t see how anyone can think this isn’t a ghost.

On the other hand, I have seen sharks in situations like this and the surfers definitely would have no idea and probably faced very little danger... it's just what sharks do. another ‘not a ghost’ - I have never seen a ghost image anything but offset - never rotated and as has been said, the details are wrong.

It is not "clearly" a ghost image. I cannot get the details to match. The dark splodge on the lighter area doesn't match the image of the surfer. It's the surfer's arm over the board but the "ghost" looks like a head shape. I don't know if it is a shark, it maybe- especially if you took the dark shape to be the shadow of a dorsal fin.

That is clearly not the bottom surfer rotated. Is it a shark? I don't know. I do know that it is NOT a ghost image of the surfer though. Details don't match. I disagree.
