If I had used a flash, the side of the bridge would not be in shade, also you can see a shadow under the drill on the bridge so no flash was used !
I have short hair, there were no cobwebs and it was'nt the strap which was round my neck everytime I use the camera.
There are at least two other photos taken at that time and any shadows are the same because there was no flash.
Zoom in to 400% and you will see that the light is no more hazy than it's surroundings !!!
I thought I would get an intellegent answer and not be foobed off with "you used a flash" etc.
