Halo and Supralateral Arcs at Les Gets - 19th January 2024

Skiing at Les Gets yesterday, throughout the day there were the most impressive halo effects due to ice crystals refracting the low angle sunlight. The effect varied through the day, with double rings and prism effects.

I've seen similar occasionally in the mountains before, but not as intense as this.

These pictures are straight off an iPhone with no retouching; this is not lens flare - and the pictures don't really do it justice.







Anyone else get some good pictures of this, or see it at another ski area?

I think this page describes the phenomenon;
