  Hi,
  I just want to share an expression that seem to be hard to find on the web
  I am designing a lens flare and had hard time trying to auto orient some object to the center of the composition what ever the camera or the light position is, and finally got it!

  Enjoy,
  Amstane.

  Use the expression in the rotation value.

  x=thisComp.width/2;
y=thisComp.height/2;
c=[x,y];
delta = toWorld(anchorPoint) - c;
-1*radiansToDegrees(Math.atan2(delta[0],delta[1]))
