I wanted to share this and get some thoughts - I am new to the forum and subscribed to post this. I had placed these on facebook
with a less than interested response from my "friends". anyway - here is the backstory..

My wife and I went to Woodstock this past week for a business/pleasure 2 day getaway. We live about 2 hours away in CT. Among other
things I am a musician with a great love for late 60's rock/ folk so Dylan and the Band are up there for me. I wanted to check out the
famous "Big Pink" where all/some of  the Band's 1st album and Dylan's Basement tapes were recorded.

We found out from our Innkeeper the name of the road (parnassus) so I plugged it into the GPS and we were there in about 15 minutes
from where we were staying.  My wife took some shots of the road , sign and house with her phone. We were concerned that we were
trespassing so we made quick work of it and left. Later on I was looking at the shot of the house and I could see a face image in the bottom part of the top window.
When I got home I cropped and enhanced the window in photoshop. The first cropped shot is unretouched, the second is enhanced. It looks more like an ET than a ghost but I
am no expert. I am wondering if the owners put something in the window. I wanted to share the pics in any event. Thx - Andrew

Hello Andrew!

If you see a face in the bottom part of the top window, what do you consider the blobs in the top part of the window? To me they make 2 very similar "facial" images to that in the bottom part of the window.

Yeah - i didnt want to mention the top part only because it looks flatter/2 dimensional -but there is that too.
Its not really the same at all - I dont think it validates or negates the bottom.
I appreciate the bunched curtain theory as I was able to blow it up and look closer - doesnt fly in my opinion
but it's a thought certainly..

I am thinking maybe its all a poster and props to freak out passers by like myself who snap pictures of the famous house

It's the reflection of the sky and trees in the window. What you seeing is Pareidolia

We had a simular post a few months ago.

I would go with the one on the bottom, two on top as Levon Helm, Richard Manuel, and Rick Danko...

..but...I think Windex would fix it all up.

But its just a cool house....

I can definately see that applying to the top part but the bottom face looks so different - more depth, dark spots and sorta 3 dimensional.

[Brian Topp]

I see it is slightly darker but thats because the window that you can open or close is closer inside the house.

Again, that is pareidolia, When I look at it, looks like elmer fudd with his eye bulging or the beast from the black lagoon

[Rafterman]

Definitely Levon Helm.

If they are ghosts, it's of the giant-head & ugly variety....  is all I can say.

Are there no good-lookin' ghosts in the world, fgs?

(That's a nice wee hoose, btw... shame about the pink though)

[Simbi Laveau]

I think this one,is *something* . Doesn't look like an app .Doesn't look like a reflection at all. It looks like one of those faces you see in photographs ,behind aunt Jenny at the Xmas party .

Some towns make houses all manner of pink purple and puke green .
It's considered "quaint" ,depending .
