Wrote Robert, on December 11, 2016: &#8220;Today on the way home from 11:45 a.m. Mass at Sacred Heart Basilica at Notre Dame, I stopped to grab a photo of the snow-covered grotto. As I took the photo, my iPhone shut down, presumably from the cold. As I recharged my phone tonight, I had forgotten that I had even taken the photo. When I looked through my photos, I was stunned to see this strange vertical &#8216;cloud&#8217; in the photo. It was not visible to my eye when I took it. I&#8217;m not sure what to make of it, but it sure got my attention.&#8221;<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 14pt; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;\"><strong>That&#8217;s the first photo below.<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<p><em><span style=\"font-size: 14pt; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;\"><strong>Then there&#8217;s the second one.\u00a0<\/strong><\/span><\/em><\/p>\n<div><span style=\"font-size: 14pt; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;\"><strong>Explains Theresa: &#8220;The original image has<em> no<\/em> filters.
