Several halo forms

The moon had already risen halfway from its night sky to the southern sky when I watched it from my balcony. The arc was dim above the moon and on the right was also a long side sun "pointing" to the side, or in this case a side moon :) A moment later a similar phenomenon appeared on the left side of the moon and for a while they appeared at the same time until the one on the right side disappeared.

Rare halos

On the way to work, I paid attention to a peculiar light phenomenon that seemed to move on the field at the same pace as me. When I came completely in the middle of the field, I noticed another similar light on the other side of the sun. I took pictures but the place was pretty bad so I went for someone’s trip in my car and got to this point where the picture was taken and the halos were better visible. The first time I see this kind of thing and happen to have a camera included, the morning could get worse.
