I have just returned from the sunny and warm SE corner of Oregon shooting my new Phillips 4X5. However, I got a few strange images on 3 of my negatives that I have not encountered before. One image is about 1/4 inch across. In the center it is a flattened circle. There are about 20 little legs surrounding it. Looks like an alien sea anemone. The sun was behind me and to the left. The other imag e (not in the same place on the negative or with the same lens) looks like a sma ll twig about 3/8 in long hovering in the sky. The sun was behind me and to the right. The final image is about 1/16 in diameter and is shaped like and egg. I t is darker than the sky where it is found and has a focused bright corona aroun d it. The light was coming directly from my left. I always shade my lens with my hat or whatever is available. All three were shot with Cokin filters on Tri- x. I haven't seen discussion of my first two images here yet. The last sounds like something pretty close to the film. Any suggestions ?
