As Manywinters
Alaskanshelly and i stood in the woods at the lake .....these skiers appeared on the trail...the sounds in the sub temps make for music in the air as they passed us..... we had just commented on the sounds of our steps in the snow ....the crunch...swish and thud of stepping in frozen packed snow then like swift stiff wings of a bird the skiers appear......

Wikipedia says "Sundogs may appear as a colored patch of light to the left or right of the sun, 22° distant and at the same distance above the horizon as the sun, and in ice halos. They can be seen anywhere in the world during any season, but they are not always obvious or bright. Sundogs are best seen and are most conspicuous when the sun is low."........more can be found here en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sun_dog
