Moon halo

I recently took this photo of a halo around the moon while on holiday at Tambaroora.
The full circle was quite pretty. I could just make out a rainbow spectrum in the halo. Certainly the first time I had seen this.
According to wiki, it is due to ice crystals.
I could see lower level clouds shooting by.
Didn't spend too long out taking photos because it was COLD out there!
