Gosh. I haven’t posted in a while. How about this iPhone picture from yesterday at sunset
Morning bird-watching excursion.

Lunar halo, Williamsburg VA

🔭 #Fujifilm X-T4, XF8-16m

Atmospheric optics getting better! 22° halo, parhelia (sundogs), parhelic arc, and a rare circumzenithal arc (up top, marked in 2nd photo) 🔭
Nice solar halo on display!
A bit of a lunar halo over Williamsburg VA. 🔭 #fujifilm X-T4, XF8-16mm

It’s lunar x and v time! Go out now and take a look at these shadow features that are only visible for four hours every month. Telescope or binoculars recommended. 🔭
