Lunar Halo

Yesterday I was walking my dog at night when I noticed an enormous circle in the sky around the moon!! When I got home, took a few pictures, googled about it and found it was a Lunar Halo! Pretty impressive!

Here are some pics:

It's just a pitty it was so big that it couldn't fit on the camera lens, only bits of it.
