Göran Strand in Sweden posted this photo of a wonderful solar halo to EarthSky Facebook this week (July 26, 2015). He wrote:
Yesterday while I was documenting the ongoing Storsjöyran [a music festival], I saw a faint solar halo that was slowly growing in strength. This statue placed in Badhusparken, Östersund, and is called the Father and Son.
Thank you, Göran!
