Sundogs and halo
Sundogs with halo. Trees silhouetted against the Sun, which is surrounded by a halo (circular) and sundogs (bright areas to left and right of the Sun). Haloes and sundogs (or parhelia) are atmospheric phenomena that occur when light from the Sun or Moon is refracted by ice crystals in the air. Photographed in Finland

23"x19" (58x48cm) Premium Frame
FSC real wood frame with double mounted 16x12 print. Double mounted with white conservation mountboard. Frame moulding comprises stained composite natural wood veneers (Finger Jointed Pine) 39mm wide by 21mm thick. Archival quality Fujifilm CA photo paper mounted onto 1mm card. Overall outside dimensions are 23x19 inches (584x482mm). Rear features Framing tape to cover staples, 50mm Hanger plate, cork bumpers. Glazed with durable thick 2mm Acrylic to provide a virtually unbreakable glass-like finish. Acrylic Glass is far safer, more flexible and much lighter than typical mineral glass. Moreover, its higher translucency makes it a perfect carrier for photo prints. Acrylic allows a little more light to penetrate the surface than conventional glass and absorbs UV rays so that the image and the picture quality doesn't suffer under direct sunlight even after many years. Easily cleaned with a damp cloth. Please note that, to prevent the paper falling through the mount window and to prevent cropping of the original artwork, the visible print may be slightly smaller to allow the paper to be securely attached to the mount without any white edging showing and to match the aspect ratio of the original artwork.

EDITORS COMMENTS
This breathtaking print captures the mesmerizing beauty of sundogs and a halo against the backdrop of silhouetted trees in Finland. The Sun, surrounded by a circular halo, shines brightly as two sundogs appear on its left and right sides. These incredible atmospheric phenomena occur when light from the Sun or Moon is refracted by ice crystals present in the air. The image perfectly showcases nature's optical illusion, with the blue sky serving as a canvas for this display. The silhouette of trees adds depth to the composition, enhancing the overall visual appeal. It highlights how climate and meteorological conditions can create extraordinary effects that leave us in awe. Taken in Finland, part of Scandinavia known for its stunning landscapes and unpredictable weather patterns, this photograph exemplifies both natural wonder and scientific curiosity. It reminds us of our fascination with atmospheric phenomena and their ability to transform ordinary moments into extraordinary experiences. With impeccable clarity and attention to detail, Science Photo Library has captured this rare occurrence outdoors. This print serves as a reminder of how optics play an essential role in understanding our surroundings while also showcasing the unique beauty found within our atmosphere.
