Dear listees,
While on our way back to the house with a load
of wood my brother and I drove our ATV down the
road preparing to turn around and while doing so
I happened to look up and happened to spot an
elliptical halo. I was quick and I was like
Daniel I see elliptical halo stop the quad!! I
got my camera out and snapped on the macro lens
and fired numerous images. The halo like the
previous one was whitish in color but this one
persisted a lot longer and was a more complete
ellipse. Needless to say I was quite satisfied
with this rare treat. This will make the third
elliptical halo observation in the USA for 2005.
Its a GOOD thing I had my camera strapped on the
back of our ATV or else I would of missed it.
This shows you that to be a good skywatcher
always carry a camera. At one point my brother
asked me if I waned to leave the camera at the
house and I said nah because I had a sneakin
suspicion that a rare halo would show its self.
I have the pics but I don't have them on my STD
gallery yet.
