Faint lunar #22DegreeHalo at 22:50 UT on 31st January 2023. Taken from Oxfordshire, UK with a Canon 1100D + Canon 10-18mm wide angled lens. It was only visible for a short time then the band of thin cloud moved away #AtmsophericOptics #IceHalo #LunarHalo #MoonHalo

In case of moon halos, the illusion is caused by tiny, hexagon-shaped ice crystals suspended within thin, wispy cirrus clouds that can be found at altitudes of around 20,000 feet or higher. >

Trying out a winter night sky from memory. The stars and Venus are not in any real positions. 🌠🌕
