Watched this Ring cloud formation (middle of the sky in the photo, please just zoom in to see it clearly), over Morecambe Bay on the 14th August 2022 for a period of over thirty minutes while walking on Heald Brow SD4682 740320220813-_DSC0216.thumb.jpg.87f79ab8851aa62d941cd56201a3d059.jpg Fell in Cumbria. 

Any ideas? Thanks in advance. Got more info.  (timings, camera settings etc,) if required.

A fighter jet, or an aerobatic aircraft making a circle?

Was there any fires going on near the vicinity? If one puffed up it could cause a smoke ring if not then it could be form the angle you where standing making it look like a disk, but I don’t have a definite answer as Google image search only come up with ring created by fire or planes
