These shots are great. It really shows that imperfection can be perfection when used appropriately. Keep up the good work people

Very nice. A very unusual type of flare, too.

weekh wins for freakiest flare so far. Don't think I'd ever seen flare even close to that.

Here's a totally uninteresting shot but I saw a bright light and figured I'd try to get my SMC Pentax-a 50/1.2 to flare wide open... with moderate success:

It has no problems producing bucketloads of coma (see top left corner) but flare is not really in this lens' repertoire. The other lens I can't get to flare at all is the Leica 90AA but that's to be expected.

Wow that's some very interesting flare

they always say that lens is prone to flare, in this case it works to your advantage! Great shot!

I really like the 2nd one with the low light from the sun and the solo person walking.
