Hints ...

... Of other halos.



The 22° Halo is pretty obvious. But much more subtle is the 9° Halo.

Even more subtle is the 18° Halo.

But they may not be real. Oh, those halos are real. But they may be only artifacts in my image. Alas, I didn't have a chance to get more shots. I'll just have to keep looking up.

And I have no idea what the square grid pattern is.

To learn more about these halos visit Les Cowley's excellent Atmospheric Optics site. But you knew that, right?
