		Circumscribed and 22º halos around the Moon. This rare sight was imaged by William Trost at New Carlisle, Ohio USA on March 17th '03 with the moon almost full . Look carefully to see also the faint paraselenic circle, the lunar counterpart of the parhelic circle, curving away apparently upwards on both sides of the moon.
