Overall I'm doing great with my "new" M6 TTL and Jupiter-8 50mm f/2 LTM lens (except for the battery issue I posted about yesterday). Having said that I've had a very small number of photo's with mystery problems, and I'm wondering if anyone can explain them.
The first I suspect might be lens flare, though I took one right after this that seemed okay.
These next two are the ones that really have me wondering what is going on. Except for one roll, I've gotten this at least once or twice on every roll I've put through the camera (I think I've had 6 rolls developed so far). The problem is always in the lower right hand corner, and covers basically the same area (though varies by a small amount).
If anyone can explain what is going on, I'd really appreciate it!

The first one is possibly a smear/smudge/dent on the negative.
The second two seem to be a finger creeping into the shot. it happens to me like 1 out of every 2,000 frames with a 35. 1 out of 10 with the 15mm.

swoop, I just visually inspected the negative and it looks fine on that first one. I wasn't even able to see any sign of a problem so I scanned it myself, and it showed up on the scan. The scan that I posted was done by Costco when I had the negatives developed.
Thanks both on the finger ID, that was the only thing I could think of, but at the same time I didn't think that I was doing that.
So I guess the first of the three images is the only real mystery.

Way back when the 110’s first came out my grandma came back from a holiday with her ear in every photo … she said “I thought everything looked a long way off”
