Rita writes, "This Salton Sea Spirit Photo was taken in April
1962, my late husband Bill, my parents and I were invited to the
Salton Sea Yacht Club. We were on a yacht and I was taking photos
with my Kodak Brownie Hawkeye using 620 b/w film. This was photo
15. I was taking a photo of the Captain's boat and sea planes, when
what appears to be a spirit trying to form and racing upward at a
great speed out of the water. The weather was warm and the sea was
quiet. My father was a B-17 pilot in W.W.II, and he told me many
pilots training in this area during the War crashed into the sea,
never to be found. There has been many private planes, boats and
swimmers that have been lost in this prehistoric sea. All the other
photos were normal."
Fascinating photo!
