I didn&#8217;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.<\/p>\n<p>I don&#8217;t have a wide enough lens to get the whole halo (the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.thkphoto.com\/products\/tokina\/afl-00.html\">Tokina 12-24<\/a> 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.<\/p>\n<p>So, there you go. Not a great photo, but it&#8217;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.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[15,34,20],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-8579","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-found-things","category-moved-from-livejournal","category-weather"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/nuxx.net\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/8579","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/nuxx.net\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/nuxx.net\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/nuxx.net\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/nuxx.net\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=8579"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/nuxx.net\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/8579\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":13050,"href":"https:\/\/nuxx.net\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/8579\/revisions\/13050"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/nuxx.net\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=8579"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/nuxx.net\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=8579"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/nuxx.net\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=8579"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
