Ok. I understand. Did you happen to notice if the reflection moved in the opposite direction from the photo image as you turned the phone left and right?

Also, there appears to be “glare” around the upper part of the bright area between the curtains. That’s what made me think you had a lens cover on your case.

These phones are technical marvels for their magic, but like most things they can be imperfect and troublesome at times. Thanks for sharing this interesting photo effect with the rest of us out here. (And Happy 2023)

If you’re using a case with a lens cover, you could be getting a reflective effect from light bouncing between the lens and the protective lens cover. These effects are often seen in photographs and videos looking towards bright lights against darker backgrounds. Cameras with multiple lenses can be subject to this as well…
