Moon Halo

This past week there was a halo around the moon. It is supposed to be an indicator of severe weather coming. A more technical explanation from the internet says, "The ring around the Moon is caused by the refraction of Moonlight (which of course is reflected sunlight) from ice crystals in the upper atmosphere. The shape of the ice crystals results in a focusing of the light into a ring. Since the ice crystals typically have the same shape, namely a hexagonal shape, the Moon ring is almost always the same size."

My lens isn't made for this kind of photography, and I am definitely an amateur, but I thought I'd share these anyway.
