Sorry, keeping the Off Topic alive!
Today I was on a business trip with my colleague and witnessed this interesting nature phenomenon during the journey. I told my friend that I have to stop now for a photo and he can have a smoking brake. Time around 14:00 and temperature -15 Celsius.

I found out that this is called Sun Dog, a strange name. (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sun_dog)
"A sun dog or sundog (scientific name parhelion, plural parhelia, for "beside the sun") is a common bright circular spot on a solar halo. It is an atmospheric optical phenomenon primarily associated with the reflection or refraction of sunlight by small ice crystals making up cirrus or cirrostratus clouds. Often, two sun dogs can be seen (one on each side of the sun) simultaneously."
