Re: Photos as Usual (none / 1)

Thank you! Victor is a brick/concrete mason who works mostly at the local cemetery tending graves. I've been fascinated by his face for a long time because of physical similarities between him and my father (as a young man). Recently, I decided it was time to get a photograph.

Weather blogging (4.00 / 4)

Apologies for posting this crap photo, but it documents the faint remains of two rare optical phenomena (in fact I saw both only once before, at least consciously), and I bungled up my opportunity better photo while trying to turn off the damn flashlight: a cloud moved before the Sun...

You are supposed to see two less common side phenomena of a halo:

* a sun pillar:

A light pillar, or sun pillar, appears as a vertical pillar or column of light rising from the sun near sunset or sunrise, though it can appear below the sun, particularly if the observer is at a high elevation or altitude. Hexagonal plate- and column-shaped ice crystals cause the phenomenon.

* a sundog:

Sundogs are formed by plate-shaped hexagonal ice crystals in high and cold cirrus clouds or, during very cold weather, by ice crystals called diamond dust drifting in the air at low levels. These crystals act as prisms, bending the light rays passing through them by 22°. If the crystals are randomly oriented, a complete ring around the sun is seen --- a halo. But often, as the crystals sink through the air they become vertically aligned, so sunlight is refracted horizontally -- in this case, sundogs are seen.

Re: Weather blogging (none / 1)

This reminds me that me and afew saw the most bizarre thing going on with a sunrise last summer on our way out to the mountains. It was like a beam of shadow was thrown out from the sun whilst all around it the sky was getting lighter.

Re: Weather blogging (none / 1)

Maybe the same phenomenon viewed from higher up? (E.g. the light was reflected down by the ice crystals, and a light pillar would have been visible a few hundred metres below you?)

Re: Weather blogging (none / 1)

Not sure how high it is where afew lives but we were only just leaving for the mountains at that point, so we were still low down. It was really freaky and afew said he'd never seen it before.
