While attending an open day at Imphal Barracks in York I noticed a partial halo around the Sun.

Faint solar halo

To: 2006-07-15 15:30 UT

I first noticed the partial halo at around 15:15 UT. It was very faint and had just a hint of colour to it. As with a previous observation of a halo I found that it was easier to see it while wearing my sunglasses.

I attempted to image it using the camera in my mobile phone:
