Sun dogs and birds

Mods, please can you move if this is in the wrong place? I was set up to image with my Quark on 1st June but there was far too much cloud about. But I noticed some neat atmospheric effects, so it made me feel a little better   Thanks for looking, Luke

Cool .

I think the last one is a circumzenithal arc which is a very rare arc to see or even photograph.

Thanks, Jarrod, Dave, Alexandra and Dave

These ones were really bright and easy to see, which was nice and cheered me up, I think I was on three blanks in four days, which was a bit of a pain as I'd put the mount out every day so the Quark was ready in case the skies opened up. Sometimes it pays off, sometimes I get rained on

Very nice set of images the last one certainly is a circumzenithal arc. Since I learnt about these phenomena I do spend a lot of time gazing skywards.

Thanks, Dave and Pete, for the ID and link on the circumzenithal arc
