Details:
As relatively warm weather has arrived here in Southern Ontario, I was outside doing some spring cleaning in my backyard observatory, when I noticed a light haze around the sun which created these beautiful halo's, including sundogs. One of the rings formed a circle of 360 degrees around the horizon, and I had to use an 8mm lens to image it completely.

Great shot! The 360 degree circle is the parhelic circle, Im pretty sure. And, something a bit more uncommon ... I think I can see a Wegner arc within the parhelic circle in your image. More here: http://www.atoptics.co.uk/halo/mdisp5.htm
