This is my first great halo display with odd radius halos. Many of the rings and arcs were later identified from photographs. The 35° halo was only seen from photographs.

I'm also happy to get good photographs of the Lowitz arc.

Even though the display was over by noon, it was at least as good as the one yesterday. The Wegener anthelic arc was brighter and also the odd radius halos were more complex.
