Ruth, your moon and halo are so moody in a good way. Keelin, bleach in the wash made me laugh out loud!

Indeed there was another CZA today, but so fleeting I just watched it fade in and out.

But this! I have never seen a corona or iridescence accompanied by sun dogs or a halo, much less a CZA. but today we had the whole kit and caboodle.

here is the iridescence with one sun dog to the left. have you witnessed both together? Do you have pics?

edit …actually I have witnessed both but it’s been  a long time and I had forgotten. But still would love to see photos if you have them!

Hans, I couldn’t open your link but your description worked wonders (and I looked on atoptics). I understand better now. thanks!

I wish I could send a halo display your way… we do seem to have our fair share here in the Northeast US.

[Ariel Kotker]

Hans, you made me laugh with your halo sniffer dog! I hope its nose is hard at work, digging up a halo for you.

here is the same display. It seems to show the supralateral arc. How can we tell the difference between that and a 46° halo?  because it’s not perfectly round?

Hans, I love a dachshund! And Ruth, that moon is made of velvet. Keelin, the sun tried to hide but its fan stuck out from behind the folding screen!

I suppose I should put this under cloud ID help, but have I seen a Parry arc here?

[Ariel Kotker]

ruth, here’s to keep your hunter’s moon company! thank you keelin, a lovely fanned halo. and hans, nice dog… perhaps to chase the neon fish…

[Ariel Kotker]

Tony, don’t you love it when things line up just right? Hans, that iridescence is just sublime. Ruth what a peaceful colorific lunar moment you’ve captured.

thank you, Keelin, and I’ll take some of that bubbling brew, please.

every day is a better day with a halo display

[Ariel Kotker]

Arina, I keep thinking of this wonderful arrow! I certainly hope the bus drove in the right direction…

What wonderful responses to this lovely question

I think I like clouds because they can express indescribable feelings

[Ariel Kotker]

CZA-zzzing!

[Ariel Kotker]

Ruth, I’m so glad you spotted a rainbow after a bow-less spell. Keelin, don’t you love how a halo can make any day a special day? Even the faintest one. Hans, I love the frequency of those colors!

was treated to a lovely UTA & a hint of the circle the other morning

[Ariel Kotker]

heck of a hazy halo

[Ariel Kotker]

blue-white-blue

[Ariel Kotker]

keelin, those dogs had me doing the same thing.

hans, those shadowy rays have always intrigued me. They almost look brown sometimes and I wonder why?

I certainly see a circumscribed halo there. One of my very favorite optical phenoms!
