The spooky Brocken spectre was caught on camera in perfect conditions at the East Yorkshire coast.
A wildlife photographer from East Yorkshire has captured a rare ghostly shadow phenomenon while out spotting seabirds.
The phenomenon is called a Brocken spectre, which the Met Office describes as "a large shadow of an observer cast onto cloud or mist", named after the German mountain on which it was first noted in 1780. The keen photographer said he normally captured wildlife and sunsets and had some interesting photos of the moon, but this unusual photo was now going "straight to the top of the pile in my photo albums".Another example of a Brocken spectre captured in Hayfield in the Peak District
