Christmas Sundog Photo

Photographer’s Note

At about 15:15 on Christmas Day I saw the phenomenon known as "sundog".
Usually a pair of "dogs" are visible. I was not able to spot the second one.

The sundog is in the centre, in the upper third of this shot.

More information about sundogs is here!

You seem to love taking pictures of the sun! Intersting comment on all the phenomenons we can encounter. Thanks for that! The frame at the top of the picture gives a funny angle to the picture, but what we see in this wintow is simple and elegant. Well done

You are fortunate to have such a large window that offers such a large slice of viewpoint for these photos of the sun.
I found this one interesting because of the effect of the sun INSIDE the window!
It surely gives a nice effect to this creative composition!!
