There is a Ring Around the Sun Today! While I was working and minding my own business in my workplace, a sudden commotion on the work chat rooms and those people near the windows caught my attention. They were talking about a Ring Around the Sun!

After like 15 to 20 minutes people were still going about it and I finally took my break then just out of curiosity had to look up the window as well. I just had to stop working and see the sun today. The sky looks blue and fantastic with the beautiful sun and its beautiful rainbow-ish, gray halo.

Have you ever looked up and noticed that there's a big ring around the Sun? Did you wonder about it for days? These rings are caused by ice crystals within thin cirrus clouds, and there several different kinds of sun rings you can see depending on the weather conditions.

When you're looking for halos, or rings around the Sun, make sure you always shield both eyes from the Sun. Even looking at the Sun for an instant can cause permanent eye damage.

Isn't our planet just beautiful? Many people wouldn't appreciate such beauty and magnificence. So take time to enjoy nature since they too are creations of GOD!
