EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the ethereal beauty of a high dynamic range image showcasing sundogs and a solar halo encircling the Sun. Taken on December 19,2013, in Alberta, Canada, this optical phenomenon is caused by ice crystals suspended in the air. The crystals glisten like stars against the clear blue sky, creating a mesmerizing spectacle both above and below. The winter landscape serves as a picturesque backdrop to this natural wonder. With no people present, the focus remains solely on nature's breathtaking display. The prairie fields covered in snow add to the serene atmosphere of this horizontal composition. The concentric circles of light refracted through these ice crystals create an aura of mystery and intrigue. The bright sunlight illuminates every detail with clarity while casting shadows that enhance the overall atmospheric mood. In this tranquil scene, one cannot help but marvel at the sheer beauty found within our natural world. The luminous glow surrounding the Sun forms a nimbus-like corona or gloriole that adds to its enchantment. This photograph not only showcases an extraordinary celestial event but also highlights Alberta's rural charm and pristine countryside. It invites viewers to contemplate our place within the vastness of space and reminds us of nature's ability to inspire awe and wonder. Alan Dyer's masterful photography skillfully captures this bizarre yet stunning phenomenon for all to appreciate without mentioning any commercial use intentions
