This is just a guess, but if the reflection is not there when using B&W
film (and shooting in the SAME lighting conditions -- this is important)
then the FIRST reflection is probably off of the film itself. Something
else is making the second reflection so that the light gets back to the
film. Perhaps it is the edge of the pinhole?
Firtunately, odd an unexpected results are the hallmark of pinhole
photography, so this is probably a good thing. (Besides, if you want
flawless pinhole shots, a Holga is not the camera to start with; it is
good if you WANT to get unespectedly artistic shots...)
