Three more days of cold

Is how the local legend goes when you see three sundogs at once. I had never seen sundogs until I moved to Minnesota but couldn't believe what a beautiful show three at one time can be. I took this from an empty grocery store parking lot on Tuesday morning when it was -9 [or -14 with the wind chill.] What a nice beginning to 2011!To see more awe-inspiring skies from all over the planet, visit Skywatch Friday.
Happy New Year too!

  3. What a fabulous photo. I've never seen anything quite like that. It's wonderful.
    Almost 30 years ago I got a couple of pictures of a complete ring around the sun, but I have no idea where those pictures are today.
    Thanks for sharing this with all of us.

To live in the presence of great truths and eternal laws, to be led by permanent ideals--that is what keeps a man patient when the world ignores him, and calm & unspoiled when the world praises him.
