I was treated to the most beautiful and unusual phenomenon crossing the Pacific heading east at dawn. A halo formed around the sun with a Saturn-like ring of light through the center. The two flares on either side resembled UFOs/flying saucers. Here are a few photos, the left side, the center, and the right side. No photoshop, no “lense flare.” It’s what we saw, except it was all much more dramatic in person. 
i’ll bet there’s a “weather-word” for that phenomenon, but beats me what it is. Pretty stunning, though!
