The composition and soft focus are marvelous. I love, love, love that part! Haven't decided about the flare :) though it does add a whole other level of interest and uniqueness.

I really like everything about this image. The intense color, the lens flare, and the soft focus all combine to give it a sort of dreamy, other-worldly effect. Please make more "mistakes" like this. Congrats! :thumbup:

There is a haunting feeling from this picture that I find fascinating. Take the flares out and (although technically correct) The picture will loose emotion. Thanks for sharing. Its nice to have a good accident on occasion.

I like the picture very much as others do but I can't help but think it would be every bit as good, better in fact, if it was in sharp focus. Possibly if given another opportunity go take a similar photo you might try one in sharp focus and see if you like it as well. I believe the soft mood can still be there even with the soft focus.

Wow! Really?! That's a great shot. Looks nice enough in the small version but it really comes into it's own when downloaded.
So much going on.

I think it works. The soft focus and the softness of the water from the long exposure gives it a serene feel...like a quiet early morning. It would be nice without the lens flare, but it is nice as is also.

Really beautiful. Those occasions when I've forgotten to turn AF back on did not yield such pleasing results.
Thanks for sharing the photo and the story behind it.

Just love the circular flair and orbs! The horizon is pretty much at the first 3rds line and the person in the photo lends nicely to give the image proper scale. Even though it's soft, the whole mood feels calm and serene. I'd put this on canvas. Very nice.
