Hi. I am a long time lurker, first timer poster. I am also probably one of your more unusual photography people here, for what I use it for is evidence collection during paranormal investigations. I take the work very seriously and I find learning proper photography techniques very important. I have gone to low-light photography seminars and constantly reading every trade article I can get my hands on. Most normal low-light camera errors I can recognize such as flash light bounce and so forth. However, one of my clients submitted a picture to me to see if it is paranormal in nature. It was taken with a DSC-V3 (I personally use the F828). At first I thought it was an off-frame barbaque ash/embars caught on the image due to the slow shutter speed (2 seconds). However, there was no source of fire or heat sources present at the event. There was not even a person smoking. The camera settings were F/2.8, ISO-100, 0 step compensation. Can anyone identify what "natural" cause this may be?
Thank you in advance for your assistance. It is truly appreciated.
