Always a surprise in photo transfers from camera to PC.
Can you see the moon in this photo?
When I took the photo above I wanted to capture the late afternoon color mix on the mountains and I didn't even see the moon. But when I opened the photo on my PC,I saw the moon in the middle, right at the top of the photo.
Now for some sun halos!
The following 3 photos will show you the effect of icicles in the air that the sun shines through!
They are called Sun Halos!
"Halo (from Greek ἅλως, halōs) is the name for a family of optical phenomena produced by light (typically from the Sun or Moon) interacting with ice crystals suspended in the atmosphere. Halos can have many forms, ranging from colored or white rings to arcs and spots in the sky".
"Many of these appear near the Sun or Moon, but others occur elsewhere or even in the opposite part of the sky. Among the best known halo types are the circular halo (properly called the 22° halo), light pillars, and sun dogs, but many others occur; some are fairly common while others are (extremely) rare".

Here below you can see our early morning mountain!
These are our afternoon mountains!
The person in the photo is my wife taking our little dog for a walk.
Finally just an evening sundown photo!
We are having some wet weather here in the Western Cape Province and it might be the last of the winter rainy season, as we are now entering the early summer stage.
Like always my eyes are on the sky and it hardly ever offers up any disappointments.
The mountains sing their own song of strength and the clouds here look like they are setting a table cloth on the mountains for the lunch of the sun halo visitors!
And That's All Friends!
Note: All photos are my own and I used a Canon Powershot SX60HS camera!

I have never seen round Halo's - they look amazing Zac, and the clouds covering the mountain range is spectacular 😃

Thank you Hannes.
Did you see the surprise moon at the top of the clouds?
Had I known that the moon was in sight, I would rather have concentrated on getting a moon-cloud shot. I didn't see the moon when I took the the picture, as it was at a distance on the zoom.
Glad that I could show you the Halos my friend.
One nation here thinks that one of their chiefs will die when there's a halo around the sun.
This is what I was told!
Cheers and thanks!
You're most welcome Zac 😊
Yes, I have seen the moon, but in this image I like the cloud formation over the mountains more to be honest :)
We also have a lot of such sayings which some people believe, and sometimes it comes true. If a chief dies within the next weeks or even months, people will say they have seen a halo ;)

Thank you and yes, I am also a cloud lover and that's why I concentrated so much on the cloud that I didn't even see the moon lol.
I heard today that Sean Connery died at age 90 today and maybe that was the halo signal.
He was my favorite James Bond actor.
But of course you and I don't believe in those things.
Cheers and thanks!
I only believe in such things if they promise a big win for me 😜
Sean Connery was the best and I liked him very much.
Cheers and !BEER

Promises of big wins are getting scarcer by the day my friend, unless you count the offers of the scammers lol.
I received a "big airdrop" scam in the comments of my post today!
Totally agreed about Connery!
Cheers and thanks!
That's true, and there are a lot scammers around. I get such scams via e-mail almost every day.
Cheers and !BEER
