Voted 10/10 | Hi Diego, isn't this Halo phenomenon? Do we look towards the sun or is the sun behind your back? If this is the view towards the sun, this may be Halo phenomenon. Anyhow, nice photo of that phenomenon! Cheers Tomas :) | | Posted Apr 18, 2008 9:48 am |

Hasn't voted | The sun was behind those rocks so the pic was taken towards the sun. Is the Halo phenomenon then?
Thanks Tomas | | Posted Apr 18, 2008 10:19 am |

Voted 10/10 | This may be a corona. Halo is appearing also when looking towards the sun, but is in some distance from the sun. Check this. Maybe we could build the album "optical phenomenons". Cheers Tomas :) | | Posted Apr 18, 2008 11:46 am |

Hasn't voted | Tomas, the sun was behind the rocks but high, near the skyline. It could be an icebow because the wind blew the little ice and snow crystals making it possible. The temperature was in the negative Celsius but near zero. | | Posted Apr 18, 2008 12:09 pm |
