Sundog. The optical atmospheric phenomenon known as parhelia or more commonly as sundog
The optical atmospheric phenomenon known as parhelia or more commonly as sundog. Sundogs are luminous and sometimes colourful areas which appear on both sides of the sun and at the same elevation in the sky as the sun. They are caused by the refraction of sunlight in hexagonal ice crystals present in the atmosphere

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the breathtaking beauty of a sundog, an optical atmospheric phenomenon also known as parhelia. Sundogs are luminous and vibrant areas that appear on both sides of the sun, at the same elevation in the sky. Created by the refraction of sunlight through hexagonal ice crystals present in our atmosphere, they offer a mesmerizing display of colors. In this image captured by Science Photo Library, we witness nature's artistic prowess as it paints the sky with ethereal hues. The sundog stands proudly beside its celestial counterpart, casting a radiant glow against the backdrop of clear blue skies. Its vivid colors - ranging from soft pastels to intense fiery tones - create a striking contrast against the serene canvas above. As we gaze upon this photograph, we are reminded of how intricately connected our climate and weather systems are to these awe-inspiring phenomena. Meteorology enthusiasts and scientists alike find themselves captivated by such atmospheric effects that remind us of Earth's ever-changing dynamics. Science Photo Library has masterfully immortalized this natural wonder for all to admire and appreciate. Through their lens, they have allowed us to marvel at one small yet extraordinary facet of our planet's vast repertoire: an optical phenomenon that reminds us just how magnificent our world truly is.
