This amazing photo was taken in a very appealing manner. The halo that is seen above the sun in Cambodia. The explanation goes into greater detail about this phenomenon. The thin clouds that are around the sun contain millions of small ice crystals that cover the sky, and each crystal acts like a lens around the sun. The mini lens is similar to a hexagonal shape that deposits the cool halo effect when the light enters the crystal; refracting at 22 degrees. The photo is located in the ancient Bayon temple in Angkor. This photo is beautiful, and I feel that the black and white component of this photo comes off amazing, and was a great choice. The halo around the sun seems nearly perfect, and I love this photo.
