it was just a very quick snapshot i took, its out of focus and whatnot, probably just some sort of reflection or some kind of energy orb

ha, yeah, if it were any closer to 12/21/12 id say its the end of the world and tell everyone to repent before the world bursts into flames and floods over or whatever the hell is supposed to happen

It's lens flare. A reflection of the Moon internal to the lens.

I had to google this myself the other night. I was curious as to why the ring appeared.
