(1st time poster)
hey, i been watching lost since the very beginning but just like to say if u have noticed this face behind ben in 4x06, The Other Woman. because i certainly don't remember reading any forum with this being mentioned.

k, notice the face in the backround in the right,it must be a face because we can clearly see an eye,nose and mouth with shadows, could this be jacob?
or is this the reason why harper says 'ben is exactly where he wants to be', and possibly why miles says in earlier episodes 'i am exactly where i want to be' to Kate. could jacob or smokey appear as a ghost of the dead harper that speaks to juliet? Ben may have spoken to jacob telling him about harper. He also seems to be looking down at ben.

anyway im sure there are lots of questions about this that i havn't mentioned above, but i think that a face in the background, with shadows on the right side of his face, is too much of a consistence to be just dirt.
i was going to post this earlier but i didnt have the time to post it, and im amazed that know one else has noticed this or spoken of it.
they maybe have,(i don't know) but thats quite a big face to go unnoticed.
Also notice the cage, on the left hand side, with thick ropes inside it, I have many ideas about this but dont realy know what to say about it.

would like to hear your comments.

Welcome Comrade! make yourself at home here

Yeah I see what you mean, that sure does look like a face. And since his cabin has mysteriously disappeared, he may be anywhere now! Yeah I think it was BSM (black smoke monster) who appeared in the form of Harper to talk to Juilette too.

What are your ideas about the ropes? It looks like a kind of animal cage to me .. maybe for Ben's bunny rabbits!

Hey welcome to the forums..

Ok firstly, Harper is not dead, Writers announced this after that episode.
Very well could be smoke monster in her place for all we know but i personally dont think the smoke monster changes form into anyone and what we have seen our cast players seeing in the past was purely in their mind or spirits.
i think the smoke monster can bring guilt out in your consience making our losties see the bad things they have done but i dont believe it changes form.

I can definatly see a face in that picture, very spooky.. it looks like its been dead along time anyway lol

sod the face.... what about the little parsnip man sitting on the shelf behind his other shoulder

Thank god its not just me!
I cant see anything!

Ok PEOPLE WHO CAN'T SEE IT. I'll try and direct you to it.

Look at Ben - now look to (your) right of Ben Now look at the right shoulder of Ben. Look up from there, there is kind of a white line of mist or something then directly to the right of it theres a rather large head

NOOOO DONT MAKE ME LOOK AGAIN!!!...*rocking back-and-forth with cardboard box on head "warm safe place.....warm safe place...."*

can see an outline alright but it may just be a reflection from lighting man in backround when filming. I have photoshopped it and it doesnt seem too clear when transposed.

Other than that i could only presume it smokey in some form as he protects the island as ben does

cant be jacob anyway as he trapped within the ring of ash and this scene not from the cabin.

Smokey more likely as it has been confirmed that ekos brothers appearances were smokey and not apparitions.

I'll have to have a look on my home pc, its LCD so no glare, thats all im getting atm, loads of glare!

...*attempts to fend off said Parsnip Man with roasting tin & carrots*..

In my professional opinion, i would say that Ben's house has a rising damp problem, manifesting itself in a facial manner (ala Jesus in the toast) Therefore, i suggest the plaster is hacked off, the wall treated, then replastered and decorated.

Now, I could do the job cheap....but for Ben????
