  1. I saw two solar halo phenomena in high clouds but I only managed to cap one. I think it's a 46° halo, but they're rare so maybe it's a colourless infralateral arc?
    I've already capped double sundogs and a weak 22° halo this year so I'm on a roll.

  5. So, @stylo_the_unicorn nudged me to post images of the glass bottle shard I found, which to my eyes appears opaque dark blue but when held to the light seems a transparent mid green. There's no direct sun through the thick altocumulus stratiformis opacus clouds (sorry, I collect clouds) so capturing an image was difficult and, interestingly, the camera's colour correction software is processing glass that looks green to my eyes as a redder-browner colour. Any explanation of the apparent colour change in the glass, please?

  9. The colorful halo effect around the Sun was caused by light refracting off ice crystals in the clouds. I was fascinated by the interesting cloud structures below too!

You may have heard of golden doodle puppies referred to as "fried chicken dog" because of that meme where you can't tell if it's a basket of fried chicken or a bunch of puppies, well now i present this newcomer... #bread #pastries #cinnamon #croissant #dog #snowDog #breadDog #breadDogPokemon #friedChickenDog #CroissantDog #illusion #opticalillusion #opticalphenomena

  19. It's quite #foggy again here in North #Oxfordshire tonight, so I have been playing at creating a #WinterSolstice artificial #fogbow, #glory and #BrockenSpectre. Photos taken with a Canon 1100D with 10-18mm wide angled lens. #AtmosphericOptics #OpticalPhenomena #OpticalEffects #Fog #FoggyNight
