I think that most of the ugly donuts are a function of the use of a mirror

would render similar donuts.
The caption claimed that it was taken with a 400/2.8 lens
(+teleconverter). I doubt very much that it's going to be a mirror lens
with that sort of max aperture. Though the highlights do look a bit
doughnutty, I don't think they're quite mirror lens quality.

I thought the same thing. Maybe one of those dark in the middle
graduated filters to even out vignetting on a superfast lens?
