What is this mark on my daughter's photo?

[tigwig]

I have posted this on religion and spirituality as well but want to know if any of you have heard of it before. I have just noticed on a small photo I have of my daughter upstairs there is a small red and white lightbulb shape on her fringe! I know that sounds crazy but at first I thought there was something stuck on the picture but it won't come off and I have never noticed it before. What is it??

[funnygirl]

It's not a reflection of any lights in the room??

[LoftyLottie]

My answer would be the same as funnygirl's. A reflection of something in the room. It happens.

the light may have shone on the camera lens. It often happens when you take a picture in sunlight; electric lights may have the same effect.

Is it a sign from God that she is the chosen one who will lead us to a better world of Love, Peace and Understanding?

[Octavius]

I dunno about fly poo. It could be, but it is probably something simple like a low-density barium photoplasma which has been generated by two-step photoionization into an atomic beam. This can lead to, amongst many other things, strange photographical special effects and opto-galvanic illusions.

You swallowed a dictionary, Oct?

[Octavius]

Nope, unless the canteen lady hid it in my salad. She did have a Machiavellian look to her when she handed it over.

[bigmamma]

Octavius , you could have warned me to duck , that flew right over my head !

[Octavius]

One would not presume you needed to duck bigmamma, that would be pejorative.

My post was not one of derision, merely a skewed analysis on the basis of Occam�s Razor. Of course tigwig would probably prefer this to my other suggestion, which was to check her daughter�s forehead for the number 666.

[bigmamma]

( looks up pejorative in dictionary )
It indeed was a good post Octavius and tigwig will appreciate it , I am just not able to understand it , lol..:-)

I hope tigwig has a dictionary.

[squarebear]

Why would you post it in "religion and spirituality". Surely you didn't think it was a sign from God or something?

[Octavius]

or a bible

[Pippa68]

lol!

[tigwig]

well thanks for your answers guys, it cant be a reflection because it is a small photo that was taken professionally and it was definitely not on it to start with unless I wouldn't have bought it. It isn't fly poo either!! (or anything else like that) Squarebear I guess I posted it in religion and spirituality cos I thought someone spritual might have an idea!! (lol) I kind of like Gromits answer best about her been the chosen one. The most strange thing is why has it just appeared?

[Octavius]

It�s a mystery. And there are so many unanswered questions�..

Has it just appeared or have you just noticed it?
Have you asked your daughter if she has been playing with sunlight and a magnifying-glass?
Does the photo have a glass covering in the frame?
Does your daughter show signs of being a prophet or a sage or �possess� any demonic tendencies?
It is strange that you use the word strange in your post, since strange is an anagram of garnets, a mineral more often seen in red solid form. Did you know that red is synonymous with the Dark Lord? Its true, garnet comes from the Latin granatus, which also led to Satans association with pomegranates.
Do you believe in coincidences? Was that just there, just now a coincidence? Or has fate led you to worship Gromit as a follower of your chosen one? Do flies poo in the dark?
Does the very date it appeared hold any significance to apocalyptical predictions or cataclysmic events (Biblical or otherwise) on a global scale?
Have you ever read �The Seven Seeds of a Severed Satanists Sphincter� by D. Evil?
Have you ever undergone any psychiatric, seismic, phonographic, apologetic, genealogical, geographical, ectoblastic, photo-sensitive, neuro-transitional assessments by a member of a recognised institution such as the RIBA?
Have you seen the Matrix? Coincidence is the word we use when we can't see the levers and pulleys.

I think someones a little over excited and it's time for their nap.

tigwig, dyes can fade or change colour (in photo printing, not your daughter's hair)
