[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
This morning around the 11.30 am, I left to the patio to take pictures of dragonflies, they had many in the patio around 50 or more giving turns and turns, without stopping. I listened that my neighbor warned to her son on a ' eclipse', then I saw to the sky and I remembered what had chatted with Digimon and Jeppe (TrekEarth) last week on these well-known phenomenons as: Sundogs and Halos.
The following links was provided by Digimom:

I have seen this as 5 times in my life but he/she had never had the opportunity to photograph him. First I took several pictures but I realized that my camera didn't have a filter to capture the image well. My mother lent me her eyeglasseses to be able to do this phenomenon with more clarity and for care.
Then I thought that if it used the eyeglasseses for my mother's sun and it placed them to the front of the finder of my camera it could capture this phenomenon. I placed another picture in TrekEarth:

Accessory: Filter: Eyeglasseses for the sun in my mother's color brown property.
The picture was taken to the 12.00 pm.

I adjusted shine and contrast. Change the size to 800 x 600 pixeles and I added a mark.

A great shot,I've never seen this before.
I like the framing and the silhouettes of the leaves.
A great capture,very well done.

Hello Ninfa, this is a great shot of a halo, they are usually caused by the refraction of sunlight (or moonlight) as it passes through cirrus clouds.
The ice particles in these clouds, which produce these beautiful displays are almost always in the shape of hexagonal plates or columns. Most Halos Ninfa are positioned at an angular distance 22 degrees from the sun.
Good shot well done.
