This striking sky photograph captures a vivid parhelion – commonly known as a sun dog – where ice crystals in high cirrus clouds bend sunlight into a quiet burst full spectrum color. Often seeing near sunrise or sunset, sun dogs flank the sun like loyal companions, these atmospheric rainbows are a magical mix of science and art.. I shot this rare sky moment while anchored at Cypress Island in the San Juan Islands in the southern sky. A sun dog photo that blends meteorology, magic, and light and color. Ideal wall art for whether watchers, sky, lovers, sailors, and dreamers.
