I'm not sure this is the intended section for this question, but I couldn't find a better one, so here it goes: Why do lights shine?
By this I mean, when you see a light, particularly in the dark, it seems to have lines/spikes extending out from it, outside the bounds of the source itself. Anyone know why this happens?
I'm not really talking about the 'glow' around lights (unless it's the same effect), also I included a quick sketch to show what I'm talking about
Edit: Not talking about with a camera, just when looking at it normally
