Out of focus but...
Technically, this shot fails twice over... It's hopelessly out of focus and there's "bad lighting" in the lower left.
But I like it anyways. I'll probably never be able to replicate it (as I don't know what caused the light effect in the first place) or anything like it for an improved version so this is it.

I love interesting mistakes.

2. Other end of size...
It's actually a macro shot of an ice crystal. The sun was to the right (rather than the left, as the photo would seem to indicate) and there was no sunlight directly on the ice crystals at the time of the shot. No flash or other light source used so I don't know what caused the effect.
