If your subject wears glasses and his face is tilted in a certain direction, a light source may cause a glare to show on his glasses. If you take a picture while this glare is present, it may show up in your photo. Glasses glare might also appear if the flash from your camera hits the glasses at a specific angle. Luckily, if you have iPhoto, you can remove the glare that appears on glasses in some photos.
