Worcestershire photographers capture eye-catching pictures of moon

A halo around the moon appears when a thin layer of cirrus cloud made up of ice crystals moves across the sky.

Refraction of the light by the ice crystals causes the halo to form.

The natural phenomena led to national attention, and reader Calvin Davies caught this spectacular image.
