It's caused by the observer's shadow on moisture droplets in the atmosphere. The halo is created by the slightly-different perspective that each droplet has to the observer and the sun, much like a rainbow. Next time you're outside on a humid day, turn your back to the sun and see what you can see. (Helps if you're up on a hill.). Doug 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
