halo sun

Hi all, i was lucky enough to look up at the sun on the weekend, and noticed this awsome halo.

I was bouncing around a fair bit in the boat, so it was hard to get the horizon straight.

Taken with the 350D, 10-22mm, and CP Filter.

Nice shot Trevor, did you get fish as well...

Thanks guys, it's the first one i have imaged, it made my day to see it so clear.

It must have been very big, it almost fills the 10mm lens, or 16mm with the 1.6x

No fish to write home about, there was a few good size ones caught, but not for me

I've read somewhere that the circle subtends a 22 degree arc.
That's amazing to alsmost fill the 10-22mm lens.
