Hi all,
iPhone capture of Sun Halo over Hua Hin, Thailand this morning.
Very striking and dramatic!
Cheers

I like that. I have never ever seen that here.

First for me too - seen a few moon dog halos on very cold, misty nights in Hahndorf,SA.

But never one around the sun from the hotel pool, 32°C and 73% humidity!!

Well that's different Doug, quite like that, what are you doing in Thailand.

Cheers leon, weird thing to see...I was in hotel pool squinting in the midday sun. Suz gave me her sunnies to put on and I noticed the ring around the sun. I thought it was the polarized sunnies producing some strange effect, so I passed them back for her to look too, and that's when we saw it was a real thing and snapped a few pics!


Suz and myself on a SE Asia jaunt - Bali/Malaysia/Thailand, home on 16/8
Cheers - Doug
