Henry,

It is, I am told, a factory defective piece of shutter cloth (so I assume)
which occasionally whips into the path of light and causes a shadow within
the frame of the exposed film.  I find it noticable as a smeery half-moon
shape across the top of a frame, usually ruining an otherwise homogenous
blue sky.  Not good.
