Cat love. Taken with a 300mm zoom lens while photographing some street cats:

Took this pic this morning. I've never seen a sun effect like this, where the lines almost form a circle.

That isn't any kind of glare from the camera, either. It looked even better in person.

Looks amazing! Never seen those.
Here's some background info:

Wicked. Sun dogs...learn something new every day. The article mentions ice crystals, and yeah, there were these tiny particles floating in the air. They looked like gold dust (not snowflakes). I guess they were ice crystals. I've been through a lot of winters, but as I say, never seen something like this.

You're photo's such a amazing textbook example of this phenomenon.
Must be a thousand times more beautiful to see it with your own eyes.
You were really lucky, apparently tons of factors have to come together for that to happen.

I took a video of it too. ****ing rad.

Took this from my back garden this morning. Three shires happy and contented after chomping their apples:
