Thanks in return Keelin. You are right the lake thread that Cathrine started is inspiring. And your Lac du Nuage is so applicable in this thread! Compliments with that one for the second time. Love it.
Love your seed pod Keelin and the Mystery for the sake of Mystery by Michael as well.

Writing things without checking gives this strange and accidentally ´intermediately´ what should have been ´immediately´. Make a typo and the spell checker makes it worse…… so also check the checker.

Discussing the caprice of wind and weather is nice Keelin en here we see them in color by you and Michael. Michael your last two posts have something in common: composition and colors. Your #722 strikes me in particular for its composition.
Trying to continue the softness here is the shape into which my spooky creature partially morphed being a close up on a later moment.
Morphed Part Of CreatureThat is a really wonderful capture Keelin. A mysterious hand warming figure looking into the lens. Love it.

Yesterday a upper tangent arc tangent to nothing at all and hovering in the sky alone. I took intermediately a picture, but damn it … it is my wide angle.
Quick. Mount my zoom. Too late. The UTA is gone with the wind. Then just crop and zoom in virtually.Your lovely and well written musings and words deserve a tribute in the shape of a pictured sunset Keelin. In your own words: capricious and cloudlike. And the other contributions by Catherine, and George as well.
Poetry In The SkyNice halo Michael. It took me back to my archive and next one struck me as a mathematical excercise in the sky.
Airborne Archimedes?
No rain involved here Justin, but congrats with this very bright and colorful sundog you spotted.
Indeed wow.
Love your oddities at high altitude in #718 Michael.
And the painted-on-rough-canvas-look more than saves your picture Keelin. It fits perfectly with the capture and also with the composition.
Yes Keelin I did a happy dance, while watching sundogs come and go and change shape. I suppose Michael did also some happy moves catching a Parry arc and a parhelic. And I agree with the quote from Crowley Michael. It is always a bit disappointing what the camera does after having seen and captured a bright colorful halo. Lucky enough there is LR with which one can make the picture more like it really was. Without overdoing it will come close.
And yes these animations are wonderful on atoptics. It is the software of Les Cowley that is broadly used I noticed and it enables these animations on meteoros.de as well. It is fun to play with these animations and it is also very instructive as to the way these halos appear and develop depending on the height of the sun.
Unfortunately I don’t have my archive with me this week So just text for now.
Congrats Michael. It makes one´s day seeing these phenomena. It gives Heartglow, like Keelin spotted above.
On the first you spotted the rare suncave Parry and the UTA. I can see them both since they just don´t coincide yet. On the website meteoros.de (note that it is in German language) you can simulate the height of the sun and see the effect on the appearance of the arc.
According to what I tried the sun must have been at approximately 35 degrees high when you took the picture.
I am waiting for new occasions over here. It is a long time since I saw something exciting except for some recent spectacular sundogs (above). Less rare but also exciting for its brightness and colors. Here is another one from the series I took a week ago.
