Summary

Description
English: The image shows a regular circumscribed halo (the large ring) and a 9° halo (smaller ring) around the sun. The latter is comparatively rare, as it is caused by pyramidal ice crystals rather than prismatic ones. See http://atoptics.co.uk/halo/pyrhalo.htm. Photographed in Midsland, Terschelling, the Netherlands, 2:35 PM.
Nederlands: De foto toont een gewone omhullende halo (de grote ring) en een 9°-halo (kleinere ring) rond de zon. De 9°-halo is relatief zeldzaam omdat de verantwoordelijke ijskristallen piramidaal van vorm zijn in plaats van prismatisch. Zie http://atoptics.co.uk/halo/pyrhalo.htm. Gefotografeerd in Midsland, Terschelling, 14:35.
