Moon’s Milk

Halo around the moon.

As and I were heading out the door of my house earlier today I noticed a rather pronounced halo around the moon. I didn’t take a picture of it at the time, but after returning to my house I noticed that it was still around and a good bit more visible, so I grabbed the camera and fired off a few shots.

I don’t have a wide enough lens to get the whole halo (the Tokina 12-24 would have been great about now), but I did get a fair bit of it. After seeing the blinding glare of the moon I went to take another photo with something (me?) blocking out the moon, but it was too late and the halo was gone.

So, there you go. Not a great photo, but it’s a halo none the less. I just hope I get to see another 3-4 ring halo like I did one night when I was little. That was amazing.
