The Suns Halo!
Also known as a 22 degree halo or a sun halo, the ring is caused by sunlight passing through ice crystals in cirrus clouds within the Earth's atmosphere.
The crystals bend direct sunlight, projecting it elsewhere into the sky, and at a certain angle -- you guessed it, 22 degrees -- a halo can be seen around the sun.
Seen this during my travels today and thought it would make an interesting blip.. I liked it and hadn't really seen one before. Thought it was cool :)
Hope everyone is having a great weekend.. :-)
