Who has seen a "sundog"?

Question

The occur relatively frequently, but are rarely noticed.

Answer 1

I've seen a lot of good ones in the winter (Canada).  It's pretty neat.

Answer 2

Yes I have, 2 or 3 times.  I took a photograph of one but I had to get it in two shots because it was too wide to get in one shot.

Answer 3

Oh wow nice pic, i've not seen one by my own eyes in real as yet just saw the pic today and i am happy to have seen atleast the pic. Maybe from now on i'd b more observant in looking for one, altho i'm a keen observer of nature i haven't reached a place where i cud get such a good view of the magnificent Sun atleast in the day time, been to the beach but then when the sun was setting :D allergic to Sun rays so avoid to be exposed directly to a greater extent and time.

Answer 4

I have in real life. check out google images of "sundog". there's some pretty cool pics.

Answer 5

This is the first I hear of them (and moon dogs). Thanks for the enlightenment.

But I have observed in nature the phenomenon of not seeing something and it was spectacular to me. We went to take my niece to watch a dolphin show and my brother and I were standing and looking at the tank of water where the dolphin was.

Looking at the tank from one position, there was a huge dolphin in the tank. Then my brother called me to take a few steps to the right. The dolphin was INVISIBLE. The tank looked empty. Wow, How could that be? How can we be looking at a tank we knew had a dolphin in it " appear empty"?

That  was breathtaking to me.

It is one thing to learn about the phenomena explaining this in a physics text book in the classroom and another to observe it in real life. Nature does have wonderous things.
