Description
The cirrus clouds appear to have some effect in the sky. In the western sky the clouds grow gradually thicker but here they are still thin. The sundog you see here (I zoomed in with telelens) is one of those parhelia that show up frequently. There is a fantastic website, http://www.sundog.clara.co.uk/halo/parhelia.htm, which does not only explain this phenomenon but describes a wide variety of frequent and rare phenomenons in the sky (and they even have some stunning simulation software that can be downloaded freely) as well.
