I’ve never managed to even see a sundog let alone capture one with the Nikon. Lovely work! Any idea what altitude that cirrus is likely to be?
Dave Pearson
Sundogs are actually more common that most people think (generally more common than rainbows, for example). It’s just a case of knowing where and when to look (as you’ll imagine, rainbows are pretty obvious—sundogs less so).
No, not sure what altitude it would have been.

One of the best sundogs I have seen nice work Dave!
Dave Pearson
Cheers Ken, it was one of the best I’ve seen too. Really nice example of a “tail” heading back from it. I was lucky to catch it too.

Thanks DS1.
Although I suspect I might misrepresented our village. It only looks so sunny because I generally don’t go out when the weather’s not so nice, which is about half the time. ;)
