This is weird as hell but I am sure there is a logical explanation. My wife was putting together a photo album for her mother of our wedding. The photos were digital and were sent to clark color to be developed and were sent back. When they arrived most were normal, but my wife noticed 3 pictures of her father with a gray spot perfectly formed around his nose in each photo. He recently returned from the doctor after getting a melanoma or weird cancerous looking spot on his nose checked out. All three photos were in different poses making this even stranger. To add to the mystery, as we dug further through the photos we found another image of my grandpa with an identical looking gray spot perfectly formed around his nose as well. This is where my wife and I got weirded out. My grandpa had a diagnosed cancerous spot that was removed, they cut out a good portion of his nose. Strange, maybe just a coincidence, who knows? Out of the 100 or so different pictures there was only one other photo that had a gray spot on it. It was a photo of my brother and he had a paint easel shaped spot on the left side of his forehead. He does have a skin disease called vitiligo. I am wondering if these photo blemishes could be due skin blemishes reflecting the light in a different manner from normal skin( I know this is weird but who cares), some kind of cancer or skin disease predicting phenomenon, or just mere coincidence???? I am looking for serious answers only, I am not joking around here I am genuinely curious as to what could have caused those spots. If you have any theories or have ever heard of any photo phenomena such as these described please let me know. Thanks in advance.

Gray spots in photos indicators of cancer or just mere coincidence?

Very interesting. You sound sane enough, so that makes me curious, too.
I'd love to see some of those photos, including ones from the same batch without the spots.

Cancers are very different cells. I've seen them pulled out of brains (In neurobiology classes) and you can just slurp it right out or pull it out like a grape in a bowl after it is cut. I think it's something to do with the light reflecting. Just the way fingernails are visibly different looking it makes half sense that cancer, a tissue that is not the skin on your face, might be visibly different on camera. Especially if there was a flash used. Flashes can see through the right clothing as Anne Hathaway's boobs would tell you.
