I don't know how to tag rainbow arcs in the rigth part of the picture.
Wiki page for lens flare states:
The following are NOT lens flares: Rainbow-colored arcs that partially or entirely encircle the light source. These are called halos, and are not camera artifacts.
However, wiki page for halo says otherwise:
Not to be confused with halo-like artifacts of light caused by bright light sources interacting with the camera lens. The latter is a lens flare.
Which of these statements is more credible?
