Is this a crack

Washed my bike today after Hazeldean. Picked this up while cleaning. This is on my Big.Nine, rear chain-stay on the break side. Looks like something impacted there, possibly a stone.

IMO that isn't a carbon crack the carbon fibres will be mostly lying along the length of the tube so any transverse crack would not be so clean. I'm not sure what it is though.

Carbon crack?

I think it's more than likely just a public hare on your camera lens.

Then it must be a hair in my eye since I can see it without a camera lens.
