Your onto something there. Cameras, surfaces, eyes (I have astigmatism
so this one is particularly interesting, for me, without glasses). All
can cause lens flare. Even atmospheres, etc. Heck, maybe everything
under the sun (or light?).

Hey, that looks almost exactly like mine.  Cool, I never thought someone
would try to duplicate one of my images, (I'm pretty new at this) 
Thanks for the flattery. :-)

Oh, BTW,  great image.  I'm still working on mine, we'll have to compare
when they're finished.
