That appears to be a naturally occurring photo effect called Lens Flare and is very common when photographing a very bright subject against a dark background. The bright light is being reflected off the camera sensor. The subject you chose to take a picture of is a difficult subject for most cameras, including higher end DSLR Cameras. If you don't see this on other photos, you have nothing wrong here.
