Hello from Florida! I'm new to the forum and fairly new to the world of picture taking. I look forward to reading the various topics to improve my camera skills. I have a question regarding a Canon EOS Rebel T6 I bought last fall. After about a month of use, I noticed a couple blue, squiggly lines(just above smoke in this pic) appearing on the right side of all my photos. I tried cleaning the appropriate areas using a cleaning guide, but it's still visible. Any thoughts on what it may be, and how to take care of it? Thanks in advance for any help!

What did you clean? And how did you clean it?
What I see is sensor dust, or more probably a fiber or hair on your sensor.
Most good camera stores offer a sensor cleaning service or can recommend a shop that does.

Get a professional C&C done.

Thanks for a quick reply you two! Sorry I was a little slower...out of town. I used a camera approved blower to see if any dust would kick out, but didn't use any other method for fear of damaging something. Will definitely get it professionally cleaned.
