Oh good, you’re back - you got us all sad and worried - naughty boy!
Hello again.
Yes there is a tale but not now.
Sensible lens explanations aside, I like the giant jellyfish idea
Giant jelly fish and it's coming to get us all
Its the light from the sun hitting the camera lens and putting an image on the sensor....as @evilclive has said "lens flare"......can sometimes cause amazing results in photos. Nice photos BTW
Alien invasion?
If it wasn't visible to you, it'll be the light from the sun in the camera lens going in non-obvious directions. Lenses have a lot of layers, and although the light mostly goes in the direction you want it to (think your classic picture of the light in Galileo's telescope), at each junction a little might reflect off rather than going straight through, and that results in effects like the one you're seeing.
It's called lens flare. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lens_flare
The classic image in sci-fi films of a sun, star, or other bright light sun appearing not as a point, but as a very wide horizontal thing, is actually an artefact of the lenses used for widescreen cinematography - and since people are so used to it, these days it's often faked if different lenses are being used
Doesn't involve these bad boys then?Hello again.

I’ve been out, walking, driving, giving lifts, sitting in the cinema - just me and Hamish off to meet up with friends. Independent again

Welcome back
Bit of a Captain Scarlet joke. In the series the green rings would appear whenever the Mysterons had killed or destroyed someone/something they wanted to duplicate and use to carry out their threats.Have to ask, what are they, not florescent crop circles are they, or an extra, extra large pair of Elton John's glasses lol ?
I remember the original series of Thunderbirds, a great show for it's time. I downloaded in full the reincarnation of the series from a on demand tv station here in Australia which I have on a micro sd card in my old phone.Bit of a Captain Scarlet joke.

Safe to say. No resemblance to "real life" in the slightest... No "strings" were attached...Doesn't involve these bad boys then?
Welcome back
Back home now, failed to stay on top of the BGs, gave up trying! But had a fantastic time skiing, great company, food and drink. My body is now broken, going to work tomorrow for a rest
Shocked to have seen knikki ‘vanished’ presumed gone, but glad to see him back!
I’ll have a proper catch up on the thread at work.
Night all.
I would like to see a new series of Quatermass made, that would be something to behold with modern day graphics.Yep, there was a resurgence for Anderson's series in the 90s in the UK when I was growing up. Content regulators appeared to be much more lenient in the 60s as they got away with including a lot in kids shows you would never see the like of now. That may say more about the world now as opposed to then though.

I remember one of the series "Quatermass and the Pit" scared the $#@& out of me in a couple of episodes.
Great to see you back xHello again.
