We were out at Finn River Farm (in Chimacum, Washington, about 10 miles south of Port Townsend) getting some dinner and were waiting outside. It was the first weekend in November and we were very lucky to get a sunny day. Even luckier was to be treated to this natural light show. The other folks that were around didn’t seem to have even noticed. This solar halo occurs when the sunlight is reflected by ice crystals high in the atmosphere.
Wow Allan, never seen nor even heard of that. Of course we don’t get much ice around here so perhaps that’s why? In any case, a great catch!!
Thanks, Tina. There’s hope… some of those arcs, halos, sundogs and such are formed by ice crystals high in the atmosphere, not near ground level. So, keep an eye out!
Very nice. 😊 I have not seen anything like this. Or heard of it.
That is such a beautiful capture of that phenomenon, Allan. Stunning.
Thanks, Lynette, I app7it.
Definitely sharing this one. My thanks to you & the universe for this stunning shot.
Thanks, Sarah. Nice to hear from you, as always.
What a beautiful picture….
Amazing to see xx
