Harald,
You got a nice fogbow image there. I live in
Ohio and we get fog on the Ohio river quite often
but sometimes in the morning we get quite a bit
of fog.
This past october I managed to get some
spectacular images of a double fogbow from a car
headlight and later on a nice lunar fogbow. I got
the images on my homepage and to see them click
on the rainbow section and then scroll down to
the bottom and click on fogbows.
BTW:
Did you see the aurora of Nov 7/8? I got quite a
few nice pics with the Nikon D-100.
All of the best,
Michael
