The photo below was taken in Grand Central Terminal in New York. When I zoom in on the group in the front, I can see their faces quite clearly, and their faces look normal. But what is with that weird twisty light behind them?

The Normal Crowd and the Abnormal Light
Photo date: March 9, 2016. Photographer: Mark Mahin.

The photo was a flash photo, and the EXIF data shows an exposure time of less than a second -- .62 second, although given the flash, the effective exposure time was probably much shorter. This blog has quite a few similar photos in which the exposure time is only 1/30 of a second.

Like Some Grand Hall at the Jedi Temple
Photo date: March 2, 2016. Photographer: Mark Mahin.
The photo below shows Grand Central Terminal in New York, where we see the strange effect I call the light metamorphosis, in which light rays seem to be mysteriously amplified, and rise up far from their source, often bending in strange ways.
Another photo from the same day shows the same effect.
Another photo showed the light rays leaping up to touch the high, high ceiling.
These photos were flash photos taken with my Sony camera (not the Olympus camera I have normally used when such photos were taken). The EXIF data on the photos indicates they all had an exposure of a second or less, although since they were flash photos, the effective exposure time was probably much shorter.
