Wow, what a fantastic experience I enjoyed on Saturday down at Reine. While photographing the usual scene of the red Rorbuer fisherman's cabins and the mountain, Ed, my travelling friend on this week long Lofoten recce for a winter workshop next year, shouted to me that a sundog had appeared behind me (otherwise known as a 22 degree halo).

 

On turning around, this glorious sundog was fully visible for some minutes which gave me enough time to carefully consider my composition to include part of the village below.

 

Ever since I captured my iconic Fogbow photo on Rannoch Moor in Scotland in November 2016, I have held a desire to photograph the 'bow trilogy', That encompasses a fogbow, a moonbow and a sunbow (sundog) and I am so delighted to have captured two of the three bows now. Just a moonbow to go.

 

Anyway, I hope you all enjoy the image. Have a great day.
