 gratuitous sharpening, and neat image. Cool all-natural lens flare!

****wow. So many comments, and peopele either love or hate the sun glare on the lens. I thought it was ok here given that the emphasis in the shot was not Ruby's face but her skinned knee. At least it was controversial enough to get some discussion...

Lens flare on subjects face is distracting, but I like the color

Truly pastels. I like the lens (iris) star bursts.

The flare or whatever does nothing for me (apart from spoil the shot)

Something feels a bit off to me. Like the orange channel has been desaturated, which makes her skin tones very unnatural.

I don't know if the flare is intended. The one at the bottom of the chair doesn't disturb me but although I wouldn't have kept it this way. The one on the girl's face on the other hand, I find disturbing.

I think the "lens flare" ruins the image somewhat. Otherwise very nice image!

I do wish the lens flare wasn't right over her face. Never the less the rest of the shot is good. The BIG chair, the reflective expression, and the stepped down colors all work well together.

Interesting conversion, I really like this smooth look you've achieved here, this is cute.
