I was on the deck before the ferry to Nanaimo from Gabriola Island during the run at 17: 10 with my camera and binoculars, experimenting with shooting through the binocular.

I took about ten pictures in this way, without being able to see the weather or not, the pictures were out of focus. I only discovered this image when I processed and deleted everything else except this one. When I took the pictures, I didn't know about any ship. 

This is an unmistakably defined form of a lens in which the sun is reflected from the other side in the evening sunset.

Summary: I was out on the deck on the front of the ferry to Nanaimo from Gabriola Island on the 5:10 p.m. run with my camera and binoculars experimenting taking shots through the bino eyepiece. I took about ten shots that way, not being able to see weather or not the shots were out of focus. I only discovered this image as I processed and deleted all the rest, but for this one. I was not aware of any craft when taking the pictures. It is quite unmistakably lens shaped with the sun reflecting from the other side in the late afternoon sunset.

Капля (или загрязнение) на объективе или стекле

Often it's a small point on the photos, like hovering metal ball. At least - this is quite a big blur. Color, brightness and the presence of a highlight depends on the color of the reflected light source, background shooting and drop form.

Shape, color and density of pollution may vary depending on the source of the contamination and its nature. This can be as a desired pattern on the glass, and random.

Birds

Due to the peculiarities of the bird's flight, it is possible to capture a moment in the photo when an ordinary bird will resemble a "classic" UFO in shape.
