Those look like dried water spots.

The scene is from Minnesota in the fall, it looks overcast (humid) and
the people are wearing coats, indicating it was cool outside. If you
went from cool to warm to cool conditions, it's possible the dots are
condensation droplets on the lense that dried into the spots.

Have you tried cleaning the outside of the lense with proper lense
cleaning supplies?

I was also having problems with my Digital camera, but I changed some
settings and for some odd reason now I don't have those white spots
anymore. I set it for automatic and cleaned the lense thinking that maybe
it was one or the other. Something worked out fine because now my images
are as clear as film photography. When I'm outside I try to stand in a
position where there won't be any type of glare from any object hitting
directly. The only direct glare I measure it with my eyes to see how it
would affect the image. Either way you still have to stand in a certain
direction to be able to focus in on the subject. Good luck. Norma :-)

Another example is to look at some of the other pictures being taken by
other people. Some of the pictures may be bright and at the same time no
glare may show. I have shot some pictures like that myself. Some of these
pictures have been outside. Sometimes I choose areas of less light for
convenience. It depends on the situation. I will give out a link to my
gallery and you can all see for yourselves what I mean. Here it is:
