rainbow around the moon

Post by minplus » Sun Feb 13, 2011 8:00 pm

Saw a splendid full color one this evening around a yellow-white disc. I think it has been the third or 4th time in my life. Was very busy so I had no time to take a picture. Alas!

Are coronas beautiful? I love seeing them, and often look specifically for them, both around the sun (blocking the sun with my hand) and the moon.
