... Deep optical CCD image of the LMC. Diffuse Galactic Light is plainly visible in this optical image of the Large Magellanic Cloud as a haze over the entire galaxy. The phenomenon arises from starlight scattering off numerous dust clouds in and above the plane of the LMC's disk to form a faint, galaxy-wide reflection nebula. ... The CCD image above was presumably taken with a special wide-field camera at optical wavelengths. ...

Halo around the Moon. Halo arises when the light beams refracted on the high clouds icy chips ina form of a six side prism. As a result we see a small halo circle with a 22°-radius. The big circle is formed by the beams paased through the side edge and the base of prismochips. Its radius is equal to 46° (nearly). The big circle is observed rarely and is shining weaker but it is easier to observe it near the Sun, if comparing with the small halo invisible in the bright Sun light. ...
