Default [WR] 1645Z Mock Sun ... Dorset

.... if anyone sees this post now (1645Z/1745BST), there is a very
strong mock sun visible - best one I've seen for many a year.

.... unfortunately, it didn't last long - which is often the way with
such features; in the short few minutes it took to send that, and grab
a camera, the effect had completely disappeared! The colours were
stunning & very strong.

Some fantastic Cirrus intortus (twisted filaments) and floccus
currently (1735Z); I love the description of the former in the various
handbooks .... " filaments .... entangled in a capricious manner. "
