Title: A couple from yesterday (Oct 12th). Post by: John9929 on October 13, 2009, 09:20:51 pm Not done any weather imaging for quite a while now but couldn't resist a couple at teatime yesterday (Oct 12th). Firstly this nice unexpected sundog in the west, there was a second fainter one in the east at the same time.

Post by: John9929 on October 13, 2009, 10:32:10 pm Thanks John, no, for some reason the yellowish sky just faded leaving just a few rosey puffs, then it was reasonably clear. Funny weather we'er having recently. The sundog was quite colorful as I got a look at it with the bins. Those images you got are beautiful!

I like that sundog among the alto cumulus - nice one. The sun pillar is a great catch, I haven't seen one of those in a long time, although there was a short one above the crescent Moon last night.
