Are you talking about the flare at the tree line, just below the sun?
A flare like that doesn't really bother me, and I don't think it ruins a photo. It is very easy to clone out in an editing program. Look at the photo both ways and see what you like best. (not legal for DPChallenge).
Personally, I would remove it because I find those halos annoying since my eyes don't actually see them in real life. As you can tell from the other responses, however, they don't bother a lot of people so it's pretty much up to you. Either way, it's easy to get rid of in photoshop.

Jason, you can't see the halos in real life? Oh my, must be something wrong with one of us...I see halos everywhere. BTW...great shot...keep the "halos"!
