    There appears to be a quite enlarged ring surrounding the moon tonight, has anyone seen anything like this before?

    Just looked outside and saw it. Not sure how often something like this happens but I'm glad I saw it.

    I went out and took a picture of it , checked the camera " ah yeah ! great picture , clearly see the halo " come back inside , check the picture " ah yeah ! great picture , clearly see the halo " . Put the picture on the PC to upload so everyone else can say " ah yeah ! great picture , clearly see the halo " ,

    BUT !!!!!!!!! , I think the halo fell off somewhere in the USB cable :( , not impressed .
