Regarding lens flare:

In another message I suggested you post you other pictures so we
can see if the "flare" appears in other locations relative to the
source of light.

It is my understanding that this was taken in late afternoon so
the sun would have been on the horizon.   Try to be accurate with
the directions.

Were there any streetlights around or other lights at the time?
Since you know where you toopk the photo (I presume) and in which
direction (from the background) you can, presumably, take another
at roughly the same time or at least for the same lighting
conditions  (e.g., sun on horizon?)

TRY TO CREAT A LENS FLARE.... you will be able to tell when you
have by looking through the lens.  Point the camera ALMOST at a
bright light which appears in a darker surrounding backgroud.
We can compare a guaranteed lens flare with the orb.
