A halo appears around the sun over children performing gymnastic exercises during a local school sports meet in Minami-Ashigara, Kanagawa Prefecture, about 70km southwest of Tokyo, on Tuesday, May 31, 2011. The atmospheric phenomenon called a 22-degree halo of the son is caused when sunlight is refracted in hexagonal ice crystals suspended in the atmosphere. [CFP] |
