tankgirl now:

Thank you!  I was about to come out of months (years?) of lurkdom to
post about this.  I initially thought it was circular as well, and
described it as such to DH last night.  He thought it sounded like
THAT could be the arch for the veil, and I insisted that no, it was a
circle, not an arch.  I described it as looking like the Stargate, and
was amused yesterday when someone posted the same thing.  :)

So, I looked again this morning.  And lo and behold, I beheld that bit
beside Hermione and determined it IS an arch.

I also think they look like they're being sucked in.  Hermione looks
like she's reaching for purchase on something.  My mind just can't
accept the image as representational of 'falling'.  

Not that I have any better idea of where they are and why they're
being sucked into an arch!  It could be the veil arch, or it could be
one of those doors in the MoM, or it could be a completely new place
we haven't been to before.

I do think they're with Gryffindor's stuff, though, wherever that
happens to be.
