Description
"Ice Halo" by Debbie Oppermann. What a stunning, amazing sighting of this ice halo, circumhorizontal arc, at the French River Delta, Key River, Georgian Bay Ontario Canada. I had no idea what this brightly colored optical phenomenon was and I was in awe. The bright spectrum colored band, parallel to the horizon, is a refraction of the sun on the ice crystals in the cirrus or cirrostratus clouds when the sun is at its highest, which in this case, was shortly after 12:00 noon. It was definitely the highlight of my day!
