This is a crop from a bigger image.
I noticed the klok was twice in the picture...

Is this becouse i didnt use a lenshood to stop flare?

The reflection is mirrord.

It just puzzles me.

I have no clue. But it sure is interesting.

That's possibly an internal reflection you captured. When shooting very strong lighting against a dark background you can get a oblique reflections off of the internal elements of your camera. Shifting your position or the angle of the camera can sometimes minimise, but more than likely get rid of that particular reflection scenario. I doubt a lens hood would have blocked that clock face reflection since clock face (the main element of the picture) is directly in front of the lens. Also a quicker shutter speed may help but since this appears to be a night shot that may not have helped the overall appearance of the photograph.

Thanks, i was realy puzzled by this.

At first i thought that a ghost was teasing me :)
And its the first time i ever noticed it.

Maybee ill go back this weekend and try again, from different angles and shutterspeeds, just to see what happens.
