Details:
While high clouds obscured our efforts to do photos of the Venus- Pleiades in the western sky , they created a picture window in the southeast for the waxing gibbous moon. A full halo formed around the Moon with refractive colors ; a secondary halo in closer to the orb ; an airliner contrail pushed along by high altitude winds eventually bisected the halo.
Nikon D5300 with Tokina ATX 11-16mm lens at full wide angle ( equivalent to 16mm focal length. Exposure was 2 seconds at f/4
