rond circle (shadow) on my renders

[Cre8ing]

I have on all my renders with reflection a rond circle (shadow) on the bottom half of my renders.
How can I remove this?

Thanks.

Seems like your Hdri is cropped. Change your hdri to a different one and reset your hdri transformation values.

Thanks for your reply but I don't use a HDRI in this scene.

Hi Cre8ing,
are you using the DL AO kernel?
Could you post a screenshot of the kernel settings?

Hi Beppe

This circle appears only on Specular Materials.
It is visible In renders with direct lightning and Pathtracing
I changed the Index and it is gone now.
