Great week of high pressure weather with very warm temps and wall to wall sunshine, this brilliant 22 degree halo appeared a few days ago, brightest I have seen in many months. Also attached is another gorse fire on Glenshane Pass and two night sky scenes showing the Moon beside the Pleiades.

Excellent sun halo captures with vivid colours, i see the gorse fires on glenshane are still making the news as well.  Love the night shots of the car trails and the last one is a beauty with all the constellations visible, your car in the foreground and left of the frame makes the shot for me  Smiley
