I would be surprised if the wind was not blowing when you took the shot. If it was, could a strap or part of your clothing have flapped around in front? You didn't say you were using a polarizer, so that is out.
 
Whoops, I see that it was all the shots in that sequence, so must be a processing problem. Too little developer so reel only got the top half covered intermittently?
 
A little less processing on that side? Couldn't be the shutter as it is the leaf type....maybe that is just the dark side ....don't go there

A friend of mine is convinced that it's the camera shutter not working (synchronized) properly at high shutter speed. I am sure the shot was taken at 500 Shutther speed, which is the mx speed in a rolleiflex GX. Could this really be the case?
