Details:
Stepped outside while at work and couldn't help but noticed a beautiful sun halo and an circumzenithal arc. It only lasted for a minute or two. After the cloud was gone, so was the halo.

Actually the coloured arc below is not the circumzenithal arc, but (probably) the circumhorizontal arc - the high sun opponent of the circumzenithal arc, and from that point of view the same halo.
