22-degree halo, which appears as sunlight is refracted through the ice crystals of thin layers of high clouds, such as Cirrostratus in this photograph. An added feature in this particular scenario is the reflection of the 22-degree halo in the layer of water on a beach on the Isle of Lewis and Harris, Scotland.

Loved it – showed it to my 12 year old son who said 'humph' and went to bed – that's youth for you. To redeem him … he can spot a peregrine at 12 paces!! Would love a print.

Gosh, Eunice, what a frightening cloud! Fantastically frightening! Have you seen "War of the Words" with Tom Cruise. I got scared off as the cloud approached – with a big gust of wind Eunice!!! You really have caught something special here. The shimmering sand…hmmmmmmmm.

Apparently, the German folk name for these Cumulus Humilis is ‘Heavens Little Sheep’ – easy to see why! Could someone please tell us the German translation of this name? Thank you. GWW

Dear Eunice,
Such an amazing, calm, serene night picture on your trip to the Lofoten Islands, Northern Norway. Not many people get a chance to travel there. Certainly a perfect place to come to view the Aurora Borealis. Well done.
As a person who loves snow-capped mountains, It is amazing to look at the photograpy across the calm-glass-like lake towards the snow-capped mountains, then looking up into the night sky and seeing a once-in-a-life-time chance of seeing a naturally spectacular, dancing fire-works display.
From Rebecca Hill
Thanks Bryan and Anne, I have about 50 spectacular shots from this one trip to Norway. A wonderful place to look to the skies.
Thanks for the links Laurence, the volcanic one is especially spectacular.
Eunice
I think you will like this photo released today (23 Sept 14) on NASA’s APOD website showing another aurora but with a volcanic influence:-

Hi again, Eunice
I came across a marvellous photo released only a couple of days ago on NASA’s “Astronomy Picture Of the Day” (APOD)
website showing a lovely aurora resulting from our Sun’s recent CME (Choronal Mast Ejection) convulsion. It made me recall your lovely and exquisite photo. Here it is for you and others to enjoy. I still think your photo is the better one!
http://apod.nasa.gov/apod/ap140917.html
Best wishes.
Laurence
Hi again, Eunice,
Thanks for the links Laurence, some amazing photographs. It’s a wonderful world out there.
Stunning photo
Ever seen an Airglow Ripple? I’ve not, till now. Via NASA’s APOD (Astronomy Picture Of the Day) website a remarkable photo has been posted showing an Airglow Ripple photographed over Tibet.
Here’s the view;-

Calendar Material with out a doubt…..This is SO AWESOME! Eunice….. WOW!!!!
Spectacular! Eunice – what more can one say?!? “Cloud of the Month”, I think. Hope so…
May I share some more photos of the Aurora Borealis which come from NASA’s APOD page (Astronomy Picture Of the Day) :-
