This was taken yesterday afternoon when the sun was glaring hot hot ...so CQ thought if she could take a click of the sun. CQ was twisting here and there ...it's quite difficult to get a good angle when the sun is staring at you maahh!!
Hmmm maybe some pro photo-bloggies must have thought that CQ has brutalised the art of photography ...sure in their brains were asking what's that blue-green patches??
Huh?? CQ don't even know why > > > must be a 'sun halo' look-alike ...lols.
Anyway, here is something phenomenal that CQ wants to share - emailed by a friend.
"A phenomena of multiple suns has appeared in Russian skies. It's not something unique. It has happened before and it looks really nice. This is an example of weather phenomena called 'icebow' - in some cases it's 'sun halo' which appears on high altitudes (artcic/subarctic) on both hemispheres."
"An icebow is phenomenon similar to a rainbow except that it is formed bythe refraction of sunlight through cloud suspended ice crystals as opposedto raindrops or other liquid water suspended in the air."
"Generally the appearance is as an arc sections as opposed to a full circle. Brighter sections usually occur above, below and lateral to the center (where the sun is visible). These bright areas are referred to as 'sun dogs', 'parhelia' (plural), or mock suns because of their bright appearance and possible confusion with the actual location of the sun."
"Those icebows that are caused by very small ice crystals are one colour because diffraction blurs the colours together. A 22 degree icebow has red on the inside and blue on the outside."
Well, there were many occurrence of such phenomenal incidents that had been seen around the world - like on the Alaskan highway and in Sweden.
