APAD 336: Sundog glory

One Sunday mid-morning, when my husband, brother and I were outdoors flying kites in Prey Sbov, just outside of Phnom Penh, Mother Nature treated us with this spectacular solar phenomenon:

Is this a double sundog? What a stunning creation of Mother Nature!

That’s a full sundog and a circumzenith arc.
It was my first time to see a sundog and I took it as an opportunity to record this phenomenon in pictures. Other photos can be found in my blog, Sreisaat Adventures.

It is not common in this part of the world but also not rare as there have been sightings in the past. Perhaps we’re too busy to notice, eh?
