I noticed that the aberation extends slightly to the left on the bottom left corner of the frame, which would rule out sutter issues. Also, a tapering shutter would not cause the strange color shift that this picture exhibits. Lens flare is unlikely also due to the shape of the stain. I would take a look at the negative to see if it shows this problem. If not you can have the picture reprinted. either way the processor owes you a refund! CUTE BABY.
