Just messed with the sundog photo in Lightroom—this is much closer to the way it presented to my eyes (as opposed to the unfiltered iPhone camera). You can see why it would stop traffic! #sundogs #nature #photography
Rainbow's End
I've always been fascinated by optical effects, especially those involving colour splitting. Over the years I've made a collection of images of them, and I'm sharing some of them with you today.
Taken from home in #Scotland, these are #parhelia or #SunDogs formed when ice crystals in high cirrostratus cloud refract the light and it splits into coloured bands.
These two look quite a lot like feathers, I think.

Another day, another demand for morning pets. I see you buddy.
I saw a really good “sun dog” on Monday. People were stopping to gawk at it. (#sun #sundog #sundogs #refraction #atmosphere #atmospheric #atmosphericphenomena #photography #toronto)
Happy #Solstice !
I love when the conditions are so perfect that you see the atmophere playing with the #Sun light to produce lot of photometeors. On this #APOD #picture we can clearly see an #halo to the sun, a light pillar as well as the 2 #sundogs (parts of the parhelic circle).
