During a westerly flight into the sun …
… the refraction of light through high altitude ice crystals produced a bluish-white halo above the sunset. Isn’t it beautiful?
Happy Thursday.

Most recently I’ve experienced that in NWT while flying northwest toward Inuvik in the spring. A constant sunset. The light is amazing.
