As above - there's a lovely <strike>Newton's</strike> 22° halo ring above Sydney right now, will get some pictures online tonight, but it's much better viewing live.
There's also actually a second ring that intercepts the ring at 22 degrees.

Hmm - didn't come out quite as intense as it seemed.

There was also a Parhelic Circle (http://www.atoptics.co.uk/halo/parcirc.htm) as well as the 22 halo.
