An enormous red ring of light appeared over Italy last Monday.

A photographer has captured a rare and mysterious phenomenon called ELVE which appears as a massive red ring of light in the sky and is generated from thunderstorm clouds.

“With normal cameras, they are difficult to photograph,” he says. “The light they emit is very low and in the infrared, where the sensors cannot see. I use a camera without the normal IR Cut filter so it also sees the infrared band well.”To capture the image, Binotto was recording video at 25 frames per second on his Sony a7S that had a Nikon 20mm f/1.8 attached.

There are many different types of Sprites with an ELVE being the largest and rarest. To see one, you must be very far away from the thunderstorm it’s generated from. ELVEs were only discovered in 1990 by the camera onboard a space shuttle.
