Near perfect Fog Bow spotted in Igloolik

Wednesday, June 11. 2008

Adventure Canada staffer, John MacDonald, sent in this image of a near perfect
fogbow seen from the hamlet of Igloolik. A fogbow is similar to a
rainbow, but because of the very small size of water droplets that
cause fog, the fogbow has no colors and appears white. Fogbows are
sometimes called "white rainbows" or "cloudbows". Mariners sometimes
call them "sea-dogs." When a fogbow appears at night it is called a
Lunar Fogbow.
