I saw two solar halo phenomena in high clouds but I only managed to cap one. I think it's a 46° halo, but they're rare so maybe it's a colourless infralateral arc?
I've already capped double sundogs and a weak 22° halo this year so I'm on a roll.#AtmosphericOptics #OpticalPhenomenon #OpticalPhenomena #halo #IceHalo #SolarHalo #46DegreeHalo #Cirrus #Cloud #Clouds ? #InfralateralArc ?

So, @stylo_the_unicorn nudged me to post images of the glass bottle shard I found, which to my eyes appears opaque dark blue but when held to the light seems a transparent mid green. There's no direct sun through the thick altocumulus stratiformis opacus clouds (sorry, I collect clouds) so capturing an image was difficult and, interestingly, the camera's colour correction software is processing glass that looks green to my eyes as a redder-browner colour. Any explanation of the apparent colour change in the glass, please?

It's quite #foggy again here in North #Oxfordshire tonight, so I have been playing at creating a #WinterSolstice artificial #fogbow, #glory and #BrockenSpectre. Photos taken with a Canon 1100D with 10-18mm wide angled lens. #AtmosphericOptics #OpticalPhenomena #OpticalEffects #Fog #FoggyNight
