Sun Halo Around Hilltop Church Steeple at Dawn in near Luanda

Sun Halo Around Hilltop Church Steeple at Dawn

by Isabella Bond

First rays of sunrise pierce the thick mist clinging to the hillside near Luanda, illuminating a white steeple that rises sharply against the gray morning sky. A faint, pale ring of light encircles the sun, framing the cross at the peak of the church. Rain-soaked tiles on the roof glisten with moisture, reflecting the soft golden glow of dawn. The surrounding landscape fades into a wash of muted greens and grays, where heavy clouds hover low over the rolling terrain. Vertical lines of the steeple contrast with the horizontal bands of mist, showing stillness. The halo casts a subtle, cool sheen on the wet stone base of the tower. One beam of light breaks through the clouds to touch the cross.
