Hi tareq241,
We see your Mac has what appears to be a 'ghost' or persistent image. If this is the case, you may benefit from the information below.
"With some Apple LCD displays, if you leave an unchanging image (like a login screen or the same desktop picture) on the screen for a long period of time, you may see a faint remnant of the image even after a new image has replaced it. This is called "persistence".
You can prevent image persistence by using the Energy Saver sleep feature to turn off the display when it is not in use, or by using the Screen Saver to make sure that a static image isn't on the display for long periods of time.The Energy Saver sleep feature is very useful because the backlight bulbs are turned off during periods of inactivity, which may prolong their useful life.
In the rare event that an image does become persistent, you can usually get rid of it by following these steps:"
