It's a reflection from the internal optics caused by the overexposed subject... or a simple photoshop job.


Not sure why, but call me JJ.
I used to hate math but then I realised decimals have a point.

I thought that but if you have a look at the reflection, no face matches up unless during the person moving to a new spot, the flashlight just clipped her face causing it to capture.

So it seems like a random combination.

Actually the two reflections match perfectly, just thing reflection. Load up the image in PS, create a second layer, rotate just the second layer 180 degrees, set the transparency so that image underneath is viable and you'll see that both reflections fall right on a face. Perfect match.
