a bit of lens flare

I was rather pleased with the effect.
Question - are these bokeh with the flare or part of the flare?
There is a koala in the tree I was photographing but even I can't see her in this particular shot and I know where she is. Thank you for the many awesome comments and questions on my photos.

Wow!

[Shanne]

cool flare - and I suspect the additional splodges are due to tiny marks or dust on the lens

super flare capture.

@shannejw thanks so much Shanne - I did wonder about that! I find it hard to keep the lens super clean because I'm out and about in all kinds of conditions, but for once it was a bonus :)

Wonderful flare!

I can’t see a koala and I can’t answer your question but I love this shot.
