Backstreet Modeling
by MunkyMitz
This was taken a while back, but it shows a problem I am having.
On the subjects right shoulder there is a reflected highlight. I have been experiencing it with all my images that have extreme light and dark areas.
Is this normal?? I have never experienced it before. Part of me thinks it's a faulty copy of the lens, could this be the case?

The Gallery on here can seem like the "Mary Celeste": not many folk will get to see your picture. I suggest you post this query in the Forum and I'm sure the knowledgeable coves will offer a solution.
Could it be lens flare? I think I can see the shape of aperture blades and you are shooting into the light.
Good shot, though.

Thank you both for your replies. I think Stewart has hit the nail on the head.
And as you say Andrew, I'm shooting to the light which doesn't help. I had never seen that effect, Solar flares yes, but the duplication of the highlights into the darker areas, I'd never come across it.
The UV filter is a cheap one at that. I'm off to the fort tonight for some light painting so I shall try with and without filter. Strictly speaking I don't need a UV filter when shooting at night, but it is an extra bit protection whilst stumbling around in darkness!
