Underwater IR Webcam

So Connor and I set out to waterproof a webcam the other day...

It worked out fairly well, though no long term underwater testing has been done yet...

After coating it with silicone we got this wierd artifact (the semi-circle in the top right corner). If anyone could shed any light on why this appeard, I'd love to hear it:
