This observation is sometimes called ' white spots ' and was discovered by a German Technician to be caused by the reflections of dust particles in the air in cameras where the flash light is positioned too close to the lens.
There is a very good example of a photo full of white spots and the contributor made some suggestions to minimize them. see this site
This sitetells more about the experience with ' white spots '.
So you have not missed out anything, just that the your camera puts out a very intense flash light, causing the reflections from the dust particles to bounce back to the camera.
If you follow the suggestions from the two authors, you might get less spots on your picture.
