      Ruth ended Volume IV for optical phenomena with the hundredth bottle of beer on the wall.

      No more bottles of beer on the wall, no more bottles of beer.
      Go to the store and buy some more, 99 bottles of beer on the wall…

      So here’s some more in Volume V.

      But first check one of the last bottles in Volume IV by Keelin with a great corona. Great you posted this one with all of its marvelous colors Keelin.

      And Ruth I love your latest on the gallery with a rainbow after a storm over Wolf Creek, Montana, US.

      I still wait for new halos where I live. They seem to have become rare for some reason. But a dive in my archive helps. Here is a small segment of a bright 22 degrees halo to start Volume V with.

      Hans, what a beauty of a start to volume V.  I like going back to view photos.  Brings memories of trips.

      Keelin, boy am I a fan of the bubby.  I am thinking Prosecco.  Just saw your shaggy dog on the gallery.  Love the image.  It’s so fun to send a picture and have it chosen.

      I love your Touchdown Ruth and the Evervescent Apparition by Keelin as well.

      Today I had some luck to spot sundogs and even twice a CZA.

      Hans,  isn’t it wonderful to see an unusual sighting.  Your CZA and sundog are quite special.  Your CZA reminds me of a prism.  Quite relaxing.  Going with more:P1000544 (2) Rainbow and Water

      Oh WOW x 6, Hans and Ruth! Love soft tones in your CZA, Hans. And Rainbow and Water is simply stunning, Ruth.

      Not many clouds here at all lately, but just this morning, there was this sighting. A mysterious bit of blue sky appeared to be…

      Keelin,  more wonderful iridescents’s in your collection.  I’m nuts for those swirls.  I love the gallery.  Such a variety we get to enjoy from folks all over the world.  Really a small world too.

      I see that you are a 2022 calendar girl.  A big congrats.
