photographed this scene on 13th October 2001 near the summit
of Moncayo Mountain (2373m) in north-east Spain. The image is not
quite as was seen with the unaided eye. The complex appearance
results from use of a polarizing filter on the camera. Fogbows
are strongly polarized and the position of the supernumerary bows
depends on the whether vertically or horizontally polarized light
is imaged. The supernumeraries are also more intensely coloured
in polarized light. Image©
