Alright, so this past Friday wasn’t “cool,” it was frickin’ freezing! At -21 centigrade and -32 with the wind-chill, it wasn’t one of the nicest days of the year. However, to make up for it, the sun put on quite a nice display.
On my way to work in the morning, I noticed two bright, rainbow-ish figures in the sky. Looking closer, I saw that there was a ring of light around the sun. I had never seen this before and was quite amazed. It turns out that they are called sun dogs and are created when ice crystals in the sky refract and/or reflect the light of the sun, creating something like a rainbow effect. I managed to get a picture from my phone (google “sun dog” for more images) of this beautiful moment.
That was around 9:00am and this sight was at 5pm (also taken from my phone at work):
These opportunities definitely made the freezing-cold day worth it.
