Glimpse of morning glory for a telecom engineer as he snaps rare Sun halo in Hereford

A Sun halo was captured on film in Herefordshire yesterday morning by an engineer carrying out maintenance work.

Ian Collins, who works at the 218-acre Madley Satellite Communications Centre, operated by BT, took the picture while working on a 32m (104ft) aerial.

Sun halos occur when water droplets in high-altitude cirrus clouds freeze and form crystals.

Paul Simons, the Times weatherman, said: “As the sunlight goes through the ice crystals it is as if it’s going through a glass prism. The light is beamed out into an arc. The best Sun halos can be found in the Arctic and Antarctic — but in Britain at the moment we have the ideal conditions.”

certainly like your website however you need to check the spelling on quite a few of your posts.

Several of them are rife with spelling issues and I in finding it
very bothersome to inform the reality on the other hand
I will surely come back again.

Hello superb website! Does running a blog like this require a great
deal of work? I have no understanding of coding but I was
hoping to start my own blog soon. Anyhow, should you have
any suggestions or tips for new blog owners please share.
I understand this is off subject however I just had to ask.
Appreciate it!

Hello! I realize this is sort of off-topic but I
had to ask. Does running a well-established blog like yours require a lot of work?
I'm completely new to writing a blog but I do write in my diary daily. I'd like
to start a blog so I can share my own experience and feelings online.
Please let me know if you have any kind of suggestions or tips for brand new aspiring blog owners.
Appreciate it!

First of all I would like to say superb blog! I had a quick question which
I'd like to ask if you don't mind. I was interested to know how you center
yourself and clear your thoughts prior to writing.
I have had trouble clearing my mind in getting my ideas out.

I truly do take pleasure in writing but it just seems like the first 10
to 15 minutes tend to be lost simply just trying to figure out how to begin.
Any suggestions or hints? Appreciate it!

I was wondering if you ever thought of changing the page layout of your website?

Its very well written; I love what youve got to say.
But maybe you could a little more in the way of content so people could connect with it
better. Youve got an awful lot of text for only having one
or two images. Maybe you could space it out better?

Hello! I just wanted to ask if you ever have any problems with
hackers? My last blog (wordpress) was hacked and I
ended up losing months of hard work due to no data backup.
Do you have any methods to prevent hackers?

Any feed-back would be greatly appreciated.

Write more, thats all I have to say. Literally, it seems
as though you relied on the video to make your point. You clearly know what
youre talking about, why waste your intelligence on just posting
videos to your weblog when you could be giving us something enlightening to read?

Hey I know this is off topic but I was wondering if you
knew of any widgets I could add to my blog that automatically tweet my newest twitter updates.
I've been looking for a plug-in like this for quite some time and was hoping maybe you would have some experience with something like this. Please let me know if you run into anything. I truly enjoy reading your blog and I look forward to your new updates.

Hey! My name is Katrice and I really just desired to say your
blog site is great! It truly is funny due to the fact I
use to have a blogging site that virtually had an identical web address:
http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=20900279&postID=2780556014594603237 mine was
only a few letters different. Anyways, I'm a big supporter of your blog site and if you at any time want a guest article you should email me at: katrice.beard@inbox.com. I take pleasure in writing!

Hello, I think your site might be having browser compatibility issues.

When I look at your website in Opera, it looks fine but when opening in Internet Explorer,
it has some overlapping. I just wanted to give you a quick heads up!

Other then that, terrific blog!
