Bruce,

I think it is lens flare.

That DOES NOT mean that the photographer didn't see anything.

To me it just means that the photographer didn't capture it on
film, but when the film came back the convenient lens flare was
latched onto as a photo of the sphere.

I'm waiting for info on the camera brand and model number.  If
the camera does not have a round lens aperture, then it might not
be lens flare.  I am pretty confident that it will turn out that
this was taken with a camera with round "Waterhouse stop"
diaphragm instead of a multi blade hex design.
