[APML] Circumscribed , 22° and Parhelic Halos

[Dominic Cantin <dominiccantin@yahoo.ca>]

Hi all !

 

Here it's cloudy or the timming is not good for astrophoto since a while but I always look at the sky , even the day.

Last monday I saw a bright solar halo with nice features ! It was the first time I saw this kind of halos : a circumscibed halo , a 22° halo and a parhelic circle. The sun was ~ 45° high in the sky.

 

You can find 4 pictures of this afternoon here

p.s: be very careful  trying to see solar halos , hide the sun with your hand or behind a building or something else

 

Clear skies !

 

Dom :)
