Hello Hivers
Recently while skiing I saw a sundog. They are also known as parhelion. The picture below was not edited in any way, that is how it looked in person, the second one was edited a little.

They are caused by ice crystals in the atmosphere that refract the light.

Throughout history scholars, and writers have mentioned sundogs, from Aristotle, Seneca and Shakespeare.

Thanks for viewing the sundog with me.
