I don't think the lens flare does anything for the picture. In fact, I took another shot that is nearly identical without the flare, and it is SO much better.
But the challenge is to show lens flare, and this is the nicest picture I could get this week.
I do think it is a very nice landscape with very nice light, so hopefully people will ignore the flare and give me points for that.
