The Halo effect

Hello my friends.

I'm not a wizard or a magician, I'm just learning to be one.

A beautiful winter frosty sunny day. The second day of the year. It's nice to go to the village on such a day and see a rainbow in the sky. It makes my soul feel joyful and light. On the way, I met a man about the age of 70. He still had to walk about 3 kilometers to the nearest apartment building, and it was about -35 degrees outside. I couldn't leave him on the road to walk. I put him in the car and started a conversation with him about his life. He was coming from the church. He went to church yesterday too. He is a believer in God and went to church to pray. Orthodox Christmas is coming soon.
By the way. This winter rainbow is called the "halo effect".
A halo usually appears around the Sun or Moon, sometimes around other powerful light sources such as street lights. There are many types of halos, but all of them are caused mainly by ice crystals in cirrus clouds in the upper layers of the troposphere at an altitude of 5-10 km.









I was driving and enjoying this sunny day. We have 6 more days off ahead of us! Of course, the only thing upsetting is that the weather is very cold today. But another week of rest is fine!






I want to stop and walk along this path through the snow towards the forest. But my shoes don't fit this kind of walk format. I need to have warmer shoes and a taller one so that the snow doesn't get inside. In Russian, it is called "valenki".
Tomorrow is Wednesday and I need to share my walk. But it will be a different walk.
