COSMIC MESSAGE

A display of pyramid ice crystal halos above Tampere, Finland. These halos form when pyramid-shaped ice crystals fall through the atmosphere in a common orientation. The crystals act like miniature mirrors, creating arcs and halos of different radii through external and internal reflections.
