Celestial Halo

| [Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note |
Never seen anything like it! A full circle rainbow around the sun. Nearly blinded myself trying to photograph it, though!
Taken at Wat Sisaket, Vientiane, Laos - I was dashing about the temple complex trying to find a suitable foreground to complement this phenomenon before it dissipated (I think it lasted about 20 minutes or half an hour).
I know the foliage intruding into the bottom left corner is distracting, but without proper editing software I can't do anything about that. |

Sabidi Charlotte,
This is a really great and original POV showing the rainbow around the sun in such a way, thanks for the effort in getting the shot. Be careful so you don't ruin your camera, digital camera is fairly sensitive to strong light, try not to point it directly toward the sun except sunrise or sunset. this is a fantastic shot, great silhoutte of the Buddah statues against the light. Great sharpness. Very artistic shot, Congratulations and thanks for sharing.
Way

Hi CD,
Great shot!
Nice POV. Very appropriate title as well.
Makes the viewer wonder how such a Halo could have been generated.
