I'm an avid sky watcher, especially at my floating cabin on Powell Lake in British Columbia. This year I have been fortunate to get some solar halos pictures.
In early June I saw one while sun bathing on my back deck, a pleasant surprise.
If you are new to my blog I invite you browse around. Try some of my other Sky Watch Friday pictures or visit Float Cabin Living to see what it is like up the lake. -- Margy

Take a realistic look at life in a remote location where you make your own power, live in harmony with nature, and determine your own destiny. Read Off the Grid by Wayne J. Lutz and see how it works for a couple living in a Coastal BC float cabin.
It is beautiful! I don't think I've ever seen one before. Thanks!

That's a lovely delicate halo. I agree, there's something very special about them. You've photographed this one very nicely.
ReplyDeleteSuch a beautiful halo of light. Excellent.
ReplyDeleteThis was very interesting. I liked the angle of it. Thanks for you descriptive comment on mine.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful, thanks for stopping by mine. Aren't there a lot of former teachers out here? I guess we all still have things we want to say.
ReplyDeleteThose haloes are wonderful! I never saw anything like that. Thanks so much for the visit.
ReplyDeleteYour photos are lovely and I am wondering if you also get good views of Northern Lights? Your blog is very interesting and I have spent some time reading some of your other posts as well. I shall bookmark your site for more browsing later and look forward to learning more about your floating cabin community.
ReplyDeletethanks for having visited mine.
I have seen but never photographed a sun halo - your pictures are great! I enjoyed looking through your blog and seeing your floating cabin. It seems very similar to boat houses we have here that are anchored to shore but float instead of being on pilings.
ReplyDeleteThanks for visiting me!
So lovely!
ReplyDeleteGreat post.
I have to check out Float Cabin Living now.
Welcome to Skywatch!
Gorgeous shots! I've only seen this happen a few times. Not very often - that's for sure!!! It's a GREAT capture!
ReplyDeleteWelcome to Sky Watch. Your photos, the last one especially, are a great addition. I look forward to seeing you again.
ReplyDeleteI like especially the first one. Sky and trees are a good combination.
ReplyDeleteI also had my first Sky Watch Friday photo yesterday. You're welcome to check it out.
Awesome!
ReplyDeleteGlad to have you join Skywatch! Don't think I have ever seen a floating halo...beautiful!

ReplyDeletegood pics
ReplyDeletethose are really cool pictures!
ReplyDeleteThank you to everyone for visiting my Sky Watch Friday post. I will be back often to visit your sites and share additional sky pictures with you. In answer to me ann my camera, they do have northern lights in our area, but I haven't seen them yet. Thanks for asking. -- Margy
ReplyDeleteThis is a rare phenomenon, Margy. And You have captured id beautifully. :) I think I've never seen it here... I should go on with my sky watching and stop looking at the ground! ;o)
ReplyDeleteWelcome to Sky Watch Friday. I'm playing 'catch up' in reading the most recent SWF posts. I don't recall that I've ever seen a solar halo, either. Nice capture. I look forward to seeing more of your photos.
