22° halo and sundogs over Charleston
|
In September of 2025, my work is generating the most income it ever has in my career. Yet, I'm being forced to shut down my successul operation, against my will, due to one cause alone: 95% of that revenue is being stolen by piracy and copyright infringement. I've lost more than $1 million to copyright infringement in the last 15 years, and it's finally brought an end to my professional storm chasing operation. Do not be misled by the lies of infringers, anti-copyright activists and organized piracy cartels. This page is a detailed, evidenced account of my battle I had to undertake to just barely stay in business, and eventually could not overcome. It's a problem faced by all of my colleagues and most other creators in the field. |
I've seen some partial halos eminating from sundogs, but this is the first time I've seen a complete solar 22° halo. These, of course, are like rainbows in that they don't last - so photo opportunities are limited. My photography suffered as I was blindly aiming the camera while keeping my focus on driving in stop-and-go rush hour traffic.

Is there really a wrong way to photograph such a difficult subject for being aimed directly into the light? Looks like you might have a little sensor dirt left of center towards the top.

Yeah - ideally you find a narrow interesting foreground object to block the sun and silhuette out. Even a road sign would have worked. The capitol would have been awesome if I had been closer.
