Hi all, i was stoked to see this tonight while i was out taking a few sunset shots.
It was awsome, huge, and a thrill to see it through the 350D.
I am a happy camper :eyepop:

congrats and nice one - hey yer thats one fat sun pillar!? weird looking, seems to have a second sun mirage thingy happening too? -
Phil, they arent common in non arctic latitudes, but they are very common closer to the poles I believe, like a lot of atmospherical phenonema are.
I always think of sun pillars being thinner like this one http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Image:Sunpillar.jpg but my mate took one recently and it was fat too??

Totally amazing pics Tidal!! What impresses me in some of the images is a the double image of the Sun. The Sun on the horizon and a second Sun a degree or two above it. I wonder what caused that?
Well done again...getting images like that is a real feather in your cap!
