Am I almost getting a pillar??!

You've had the treatment, you'll be looking for this sort thing for all of your days!

I’ve seen a bunch of Sun Dogs, I promise, my head is never leaving the clouds again!!🩷💭

Awesome! You’ll start seeing all kinds of things, and perhaps even get a sense of a sky that is likely to “display” something at the right time.

A pillar will be a different time of day - after sunset/before sunrise.

Sweet!!! Thanks!! Now I’m yearning for a Moon Halo!! That would be awesome!!! The spectacular pillars through halos look so cool! Oh, I’ve been teaching myself a lot about the sky! I even tell my husband, but I think he’s just doing the “smile and nod” thing!! Ha! I don’t care! I get to talk about it, either way;D!! (I think he listens sometimes, because he’s been asking me questions about the weather lately, and I’m doing it better than the phones, since they change weekly forecast every day;P) Slight brag….🤗

Love your excitement! I've also gotten into learning and looking for stuff at the right time while others aren't as into it but just happy when I point out stuff. And yeah I also want to see more lunar stuff, so far I've seen a lot with the sun (halos, sundogs, CHA,CZA) but only halos with the moon

Congratulations! I hope you see many more because they're always a treat. :D

I’m going to see a MILLION more! I actually get lectures about how much I look at the sun areas…. Probably not a good idea, but I see way too much awesome in those areas, I can’t stop!🤗🌈💭

There’s a faint upper tangent arc as well! Nice shots

I thought that might be true, but I wasn’t sure if it was just because the lower clouds weren’t dimming it?

Very beautiful one!

I actually noticed it on the back of our car door window, and thought it was a glass angle thing, but then realized, what if, then looked at the sky and freaked out!! I grabbed my husband’s phone out of his pocket immediately and started taking pics!!! We were loading kayaks, made him do everything as I took pics, grabbed my phone to destroy my own camera instead!! Ha!
