Scary sun

Last night at about twenty to eight I was driving west on a straight road from Salisbury to Warminster. The sun was a dull red orb low in the sky directly in front of me. However it had a ring system just like Saturn. It was truly beautiful. However by the time I had found a layby and got out my camera the "ring system" had drifted upwards away from the centre and the photo was lost.

It turned out that there was one wisp of stratus cloud in an otherwide cloudless evening sky and this one wisp was just in the right place for a few minutes to resemble a ring around the sun.

I'll never forget it. No alcohol was involved in the event.
