Don't worry, Lawrence, I see it.  You're not totally crazy.  As best as I
can make out, it's a piece of lint or some such similar detritus on the
lens.  Either that or
you've taken the first photo of the famous Roswell flying hyphen.

I'd not heard of Smugmug.  Glad you started using them.  I haven't been able
to download you photos for quite  a while now.
