Pastel Painted Sky
Sitting in the car Tuesday waiting for Hubby to pick up a new shower hose from the home improvement store I noticed pastel colors in the sky. I had my camera with me and took the first two images. The last photo was taken ten minutes later on our way home. I'm assuming this is what is known as a sundog. It was early afternoon and the sun higher in the sky than I would have expected in regards to seeing a sundog. However, the last shot depicts more what one normally sees. Click on the first to enlarge and enjoy the slide show.

They are amazing. I don't believe I have ever seen a sun dog.
These are amazing indeed, Carletta!! How great that you were able to capture the sun dogs -- doesn't happen often!! Thanks for sharing! Have a beautiful weekend!!

Very pretty, Carletta. I am not at all familiar with the expression "sun dog" - thanks for sharing.

Hi There, We are home from George's fabulous birthday trip. I will blog about it tomorrow. It was truly a trip we will be talking about for a VERY long time!!!!
Beautiful sky... Wow---those colors. Awesome!!
Hugs,

Great captures. I know sundogs are frequently seen when the sun is low on the horizon and it is cold outside. I've seen others up high in the sky over our mountains, too.
Carletta, Some beautiful shots of those lovely pastel clouds. We just had a sundog here the other day, but I missed taking any photos of it. Nice to get back to your blog and see your lovely work.. Have a great weekend. Mickie :)
Wow, these are gorgeous, Carletta. The colours are breathtaking!
Very different colors! nice.
I can see a man's outline at the bottom of the middle photo.
Enchanting colors in the sky.

RED, I'M PRETTY SURE THAT 'MAN' IS SOME FLARE FROM MY LENS. I HADN'T NOTICED IT. :)
How subtle and pretty!
Confession: had to google "sundog". Awesome sky photos and now I'll be on the look-out for sundogs. (or at least I'll know what it is called when I see it.)
These are amazing photos. Thank goodness you have your camera with you while waiting at the hardware store. (I always carry camera and Kindle for just such events...anytime we go anywhere for any reason, the trip is apt to include a stop at Home Depot which I will enter only under protest.)
how pretty, so I take it you've had some sunshine.
What beautiful colors! Lovely. I had never even heard of a sundog until recently, much less seen one.
Stunning! The pastel colors are so pretty and the sun dog was delightful. You were treated to a real gorgeous display for sure.
Awesome! Glad you had your camera with you!
Quite spectacular! I'd never heard of such a thing.
