Description
A view of the spectacular display of solar halos over La Paz, Bolivia on 21st September 2022 that lasted for several hours. Around the Sun is the relatively common 22º radius circular halo, below it is an unusually bright infralateral or circumhorizon arc; I think an infralateral arc as it curves up more above the horizon rather than being parallel to it. This image may also show a circumscribed halo almost overlapping the 22º halo; notice the brighter white area at the bottom and the faint slightly oval shaped halo just inside the circular one. This view is looking east over the Sopocachi district towards the foothills of the Andes Mountains.
