I believe it occurs when the page has not yet finished 
loading/interpreting the javascript that's going to be used to create 
the lightbox effect.  As a result, the link -- which points to the image 
that will load -- just goes directly to that image rather than being 
"cut off" by the javascript and shown in a lightbox.  I've solved the 
problem by showing the images using javascript after the rest of the 
page loads using the Event.observe(window, "load", function() { ... }) 
paradigm.
