Here in Edmonton (Alberta Canada), we had a stunning sundog yesterday at
noon. It didn't quite go full circle, but was visible on both sides of the
sun. Only a few degress at the top and bottom weren't apparent.
Unfortunately, I couldn't take a shot even though I had the trusty OM-10
with me. We were on the way to the staff Xmas get-together, and were
driving down a very busy street (99th heading south to Strathcona, Garth).
So, stopping was out of the question. (SIGH!)
Oh, well. Hopefully I'll see s'more over the holidays, during the trip to
Nipawin, Saskatchewan and Winnipeg, Manitoba.
