In photography, backscatter (also called near-camera reflection is an optical phenomenon resulting in typically circular artifacts on an image, due to the camera's flash being reflected from unfocused motes of dust, water droplets, or other particles in the air or water. It is especially common with modern compact and ultra-compact digital cameras.

I don’t disagree with any of this. But we are talking about Florida Man here.
