Sefton Moon Halo
Fine Art Print
Mt. Sefton, bathed in the soft glow of a moon halo, stands sentinel over the valley below. The 22 degree halo around the moon is due to refraction in tiny hexagonal ice crystals in the atmosphere. The shape of the crystals are uniform enough to refract the light like a prism at a consistent 22 degree angle and cause a fairly concentrated halo of light.
