Moon Halo

[mymoon]

Could not resist. Moon at zenith.

The widest Halo  for this year. Waited for double to appear but Sky clearing.

Uncropped . Levels and contrast adjusted in PSCS2 and resized for web.

Nice.

Shoot several myself, but no energy left to edit. Maybe tomorrow. Ramai dah bertanya2 halo ini di FB.

Anyways, bukan ke Halo size-nya tetap sama everytime?

TQ. Yes on further reading Moon Halo comes in 22deg or the more rare 44 degrees or both.

Lama sangat langit berawan ni. Sense of night sky scale pun sudah hilang. 

Size of Halo measured using the fist-3fist wide equivalent to 30 deg. klik disini


Banding dengan gambar ini semasa mula berjinak dengan astrophotography 



Camera 20D ISO 800 at 16mm f/2.8,  stack 10X 3sec. Tripod and remote shutter release.



BTW saw a double Moon Halo driving back to KL from KB on the Kuantan KL highway. Too tired to stop to take picture.
