Solar halo 05/10/2023

11 May 2023 10:33

At 20:02 on May 10, 2023 I observed a “rainbow” in a clear sky - a solar halo.

09.10.2023.
Halo was visible at sunset in the western part of the sky, next to the immersion trail from an airplane flying in the troposphere, significantly to the left of the sun. Perhaps it was a type of halo -parhelium: A highlight of color that is level with the sun. Parhelium forms in clouds consisting of a large number of ice crystals.

Once I was lucky enough to observe the fall of ice crystals in winter during severe frost on a sunny day. Then the same multi-colored glow was in front of me, accompanying me to the side, at this time in the air at the height of human growth at a distance of 5-6 meters numerous falling ice needles.
