This stunning sun pillar was photographed in Clarissa MN on 11-22-2010, but I can’t remember who sent it to me. I saw a perfect moon pillar once, but sadly had no camera with me to capture it. Sundogs, haloes and pillars are formed when ice crystals in the atmosphere align in particular ways to reflect light. To see one is a rare and impressive event.

Just thought I’d let you know the photo of the winter sun pillar is one of my photos. Amazing to see. It’d be great if you’d give me credit below the photo!
