Desert Halo

Desert Halo – Photograph by Ares Yannakopoulos from the exhibition at Steinway & Sons Munich (July 22 to August 1, 2025).

A perfect 22° halo encircles the blazing sun above the sculpted mesas of the southern Sahara, casting a mystical glow over the arid landscape. Wisps of high cirrus clouds catch the sunlight, emphasizing the ethereal ring suspended in the sky. Below, weathered sandstone buttes and sparse acacia trees emerge from golden sands, their long shadows stretching across rippled dunes. This image captures a rare celestial phenomenon and the timeless drama of the desert landscape, where earth and sky unite in a moment of otherworldly beauty.
