The Chugoku Shinbun website has a nice picture of a sun halo effect [日暈現象・higasa genshou] over the A-bomb Dome that was observed by many people from the city center yesterday.
Of the phenomena Wikipedia says "formed by the refraction of sunlight through cloud suspended ice crystals as opposed to raindrops or other liquid water suspended in the air." You can see more halo pics from around the world on Flickr here.
