Hopes all things, endures all things. Love never fails.
- I Corinthians 13:4-8
I can't really see anything in the picture...too blurry to make out. However, I believe that angels interact with humanity (hence the "entertaining angels unaware" statement and other biblical examples), and I'm not going to cry foul on anyone's personal experience.
I know my parents relayed having an extraordinary experience after my brother drowned that would seem like a fantastic tale to most.
I guess to the nay-sayers, I'd have to ask: What motivation do people have for lying about these things?
There are some who are seeking signs and who look for odd occurrences as a means of personal, doctrinal or spiritual validation, but many of the stories I've heard ring true.

Not all nay-sayers say they're lying. Just sayin'.

Plenty of motivations. People feel validated by stuff like this. Also, it may not be lying. It's people that find spirits behind every door.
But for an angel to make itself known in some type of human form -- okay. For an angel to be present in the supernatural realm, "unaware" to humans -- okay. But this ghostly, psychadellic, cloudy appearance that is likely the effect of bad photography and shadows, is a huge stretch IMO.
People are obsessed with angels sometimes. I remember an evangelist saying he met Gabriel. This was 6-8 years ago. He said the angel told him his "lips were on the trumpet." How many have heard this same thing?
