Submitted for your perusal... here's a photo I snapped a week ago in a
state park near Augusta, Michigan. Notice the globular lights on the
left side of the frame and what appears to be light shining towards the
center of the frame:

Here's the frame taken immediately before that one:

Yeah - I drew the circle on the second one to show where the lights were
on the first. At first I thought that this must be lens flare of some
sort, but I'm certain the sun was behind me. The trail proceeds to the
north and while it twists and turns a bit as it follows the edge of a
sinkhole lake, it never strays more than from NW to NE. The shot was
taken around 2 PM local time last Saturday, which I reckon to be about
11:30 true local time - which would put the sun in the south-southeast
area. Behind the bushes that the light is emanating from is a big empty
field - just soybean stubble for a couple hundred yards.
Taken on an Mz-S with an FA 20-35 f4 zoom, #29 deep red filter, lens
hood in place. No Photoshopping other than contrast and tone
adjustments. The photo was shot on Neopan 400 pushed to ISO 16000 and
developed in HC-110 Dil B. I checked the negatives and there are no
developer / agitation marks. The lights are in the negative as areas of
density. The area of density does extend beyond the frame, into the
sockets on the film. This is the last frame on the role and there are no
kinks or folds on it (or elsewhere on the roll...)
I'm guessing a pin-hole light leak in my changing bag? Any one else ever
get this sort of thing?
