Odd Photo/Avatar....CK :)

[TJE]

Figured out how find/get this photo back on pc CK. Here it is ...It amazed me too after I downloaded it....it was suppose to be just a pic of a plane going past the sun (heading east, descending to land at the Toronto airport overtop of the quarry about 10 years ago). So, 10 or more years later...I'm still asking (zoom in)....any idea anybody

That's quite a unique photograph. It kind of looks like an explosion just outside our upper atmosphere.

Howdy TJE,

Sure looks like an asteroid impacting our sun, if that is even possible, or maybe a comet. If so, that picture can be worth a small fortune.

Hey old digger...it's baffled me always

 

[old digger]

I got to thinking, it looks like an asteroid exploding right after entering our atmosphere. Looks like you snapped the picture at the most opportune time.

....Hey...yippie you found it TJE...almost gave up on maybe seeing it up close! That is pretty amazing...the red disk looks so perfectly formed. Here's something for you TJE....I took this yesterday evening and it made me think you & your picture... ...but I know what this is...it's called a "sundog", looks like a rainbow spot or bruise. You can google pictures of it, mine isn't a real good one, as it was fading by the time I got the picture. But I'm so happy you found it & posted...still not sure what it is...but it's super cool!

I'm stumped. What kind of wild cosmic event did you witness??

Great photograph of the jet stream and reflection off the face of the camera lense? Thanks for sharing...

Thanks vp, but the camera lens reflection doesn't make sense. If you look close, the "suns rays" are "infront of the orange object"

Hey CK, nice 'dog' pic neat phenomenons!
Yeah, I have given up trying to explain what I didn't see when taking the photo.

Ha, you got me there TR. ?? Probably will never know.

I've no idea old digger...looks like the suns energy is pushed directly/perfectly out its otherside from orange object.

 

[old digger]

I believe the orange halo is caused by the asteroids' contact with our atmosphere, followed by the asteroid exploding. And therefore you can see the pieces of the exploded asteroid falling. As I said, you have a very unique photo where it appears to show all from entry-explosion-and fallout.
Awesome photo!

OK TJE...it's time to contact NASA...it's just so ""....I even went out & tried to take a pic like you did of the sun and got nothing like yours. Do you remember the date it was taken, could always check to see if there were any reports of meteors or comets maybe? You could makes "prints" & sell'em...

I won't try to explain it but cool shot. When I was growin up that sundog meant it would rain within a day and that was always right where I lived. I suppose this means the volcano will erupt and the aliens will land in the next 24 hours!

It's Luke! He just destroyed the Death Star! ...The vapor trail is Luke escaping the blast.

NASA...CK, hope it's not the.. 'N'ever 'A' 'S'traight 'A'nswer folks! HAAA! Pic date I would be guessing...no matter, I'm thinking. Just another earths/space mystery.
