Details:
I wanted to see if I could see comet Lovejoy again, before the Moon would be getting too bright, and was disappointed to see the sky was slightly covered by cirrus... and then I realized I saw a complete lunar halo around the Moon, even though the Moon is not very bright yet. I could not see the comet with my naked eyes, but it does appear - faintly - in the photo. Yeah !! does this cound as a rare photo of a comet next to a lunar halo ? hahahaha ;-) Tokina 11-16 lens at f/2.8 , on Canon EOS 600 D
