I'm not sure which is the best forum to post this to, so I decided upon here.

I'm working through the images I shot of a wedding yesterday. Here are two very low-res version of a quick grab shot I took of the bride with her blackberry. Take a look at her left eye in the first. There's a vertical streak of smudged and/or duplicating images of her eye and eyebrow.

Here's another image taken just seconds prior that I've cropped down so you can see more closely what it's done to her right eye.

I've never seen anything like this. Happily, it involved only two unimportant photos. There doesn't seem to be any other bad images. These were all taken on single shot and not in especially quick succession.

Any thoughts as to what the cause was? A CF card signaling that it's about to go bad? The camera's sensor? Something else? Or does it fit under the heading that these things just happen sometimes?

It looks like healing or clone tool distortion. Do you have any PP on your imports? What is the rig you used to capture these images?

Judging by the perfectly round spot of duplicated image in the second pic... It looks like you accidentally used a clone stamp on the photos. Highly doubt they came OOC like this. Do you have a copy of the RAW file you could post to dropbox or email?

You're right; I don't typically include the clone stamp in my copy/paste in LR3 and somehow it was set to on.

Damn; embarrassed again!

Thanks.

Glad that's all it was. Imagine if the imaging engine in your camera was producing this!
