Details:
I was driving to my intro to DSLR photography class yesterday evening and noticed this beautiful bright halo around the moon. I've seen moon halo many times before but never this shape. Found out through a little google research today that it's an Elliptical Halo and that they are rare. Glad I was able to witness and clumsily capture it and share! Photos captured at 6:17pm and 6:19pm (AST).
