Q: shadow of a ball bearing in laser light

You can see an example of the shadow of a ball bearing in laser light
near the bottom of this PDF.

http://grothserver.princeton.edu/~groth/phys102s02/lectures/lecture_07.pdf

Note the bright spot in the centre of the shadow and the rings.

Would this pattern also be obtained if the photons were supposedly sent
one at a time?
