An account in Seine-et-Marne, France

On Sunday, June 8, 2014, between 1 p.m. and 2 p.m., a witness observes and photographs a gigantic gray-blue circle around the sun. This observation case is typical of a halo phenomenon, which occurs under particular atmospheric conditions. See: Solar halo. Also noted in the photo is a small bright point at the top left, inside the halo; it is a parasitic reflection of the sun produced by the camera's optics. GEIPAN classifies this case as A: solar halo.
