  1. parhelic ring

    A parhelic ring is an optical phenomenon in the sky appearing as a large, faint, luminous ring that forms a halo around the sun. It is also known as a 22-degree halo. This phenomenon is usually caused by the refraction, reflection and dispersion of sunlight by ice crystals suspended in the atmosphere. The ring appears around 22 degrees away from the sun and can often be seen on very cold days when the sunlight interacts with ice particles in the air.
