 Lamp posts on Swanstan bridge in Melbourne.
I did find it really hard to get any lens flare with my L lens. This made me realize for the first time that the L lens are really worth the extra $$$.
So for this shot I used my much cheaper Sigma 150mm macro lens.
I am guessing the people with vote harshly on the shape of the lens flare saying its not this or that or what ever, but I dont give a dam, its all i have to enter and I like it.....

Well spotted and shot. I'm curious as to the lens used, as there is one other entry where the flare was a copy of the object which is highly unusual.
