Natural phenomenon 


Some days ago I saw this strange rainbow, though there were no sign of rain that day... My friend called me (he lives in another part of Voronezh) and asked me to take a picture of this phenomenon :)

Beautiful phenomenon... it is indeed called sun dog http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sun_dog
In Iceland it is called "úlfur" or wolf... I've once seen this phenomenon on both sides of the sun... absolutely amazing! :o)
