TIMELAPSE OF A SUNDOG - A Sundog is the prismatic refraction of light when enough hexagonal 'dinner-plate' shaped ice crystals are hanging out horizontally flat in the air. What you see is sunlight being sent in your direction off of these ice crystals. 🎞Mary Runyon Typically, this would result from thin cirrus clouds in the sky. The way the physics works out is that these sundogs would form directly to the left and/or right of the Sun (in this case it's the left one) at the distance of a 22° h
