Details:
Working late sometimes has its advantages.
As a result of leaving work an hour later than usual yesterday I stepped outside at just the right time to see a bright display of arcs and halos.
Sundogs were clearly visible to either side of the sun along with parts of the parhelic circle. Above the sun a faint tangent arc could be seen but the real showstopper was the very bright Circumzenithal Arc.
Alas I only had the camera on my phone to capture these so the photos do not quite do the display justice.
