16th century report of a parhelion over Rothenburg ob der tauber, Germany. Parhelia, or sundogs, are luminous and sometimes colourful areas which appear on both sides of the sun at the same elevation in the sky (one one side seen here). They are caused by the refraction of sunlight in hexagonal ice crystals present in the atmosphere.
