Sundog with Multiple Cercles

It was cold today after the snow storm and there was still a lot of

snow dust in the air. Suddenly we discovered multiple huge circles on

the sky. With two 17 mm wide angle shots I was able to catch at least

part of the amazing phenomenon. Thanks for your feedback and rating. Karl

very original look, congrats!

Hi Karl - great shot of this amazing phenomenon. I have tried a number of times to capture sundogs, but not had a lens wide enough to do it justice. Next time i will try and put two together as you have done. I like the way you have composed the shot with the shadow of the figures cast in an opposing downward arc. Regards, erik

Excellent composition, great job! Regards, --George

Great photo, with perhaps rare arcs. I recently photographed something like this but got a different perspective. The humans and shadows work for a good composition.

Judith, your photo shows part of the phenomenon which follows always the same patterns. My photo shows also only part of the whole spectacle. The following link shows all of it.Karl

Nice too!
