Lights in photos
I start noticing that my photos on iPhone have lights. Specially when I make photos with something shiny, like lamp. The same thing about videos. And I wonder, is it even okay ?!

Hello alena278,
Thank you for using the Apple Support Communities. From your post, I see you have an anomaly showing in photos taken in bright lighting.
This is called a lens flare, and depending on your lighting conditions, this can happen when you're taking photos. You can learn more about this here: If you see a flare, haze, or spot near the edge of your photo or video. As the article suggests, if this is happening on your device, try shielding the lens a bit with your hand or adjusting your angle slightly.
Hopefully this helps to answer your question.
Take care.
