The Moon with its Halo.

Today, Wednesday November 4, 2009 around 1 A.M with a brisk temperature of about 30 degrees F the moon was seen with a special friend....a circular Halo. I thought it was very neat out so i decided to shoot it. Now these are not the best photos i have taken, they involve a very neat subject so i decided to post them up!

Photos were taken just outside of the Towers resident complex on the campus of Central Michigan University.

Info cut from wikipedia:
A circular halo, often referred to as just a halo, is formed by the refraction of sunlight through cloud suspended ice crystals as opposed to raindrops or other liquid water suspended in the air
