    Fogbow over Sebago Lake, Maine

      My trusty pooch and I observed this alluring  fogbow over Sebago   
      Lake, Maine, on the morning of April 15, 2022. Fogbows occur when light   
      (sunlight, moonlight, streetlights, etc.) interacts with  cloud   
      droplets that are approximately 10 to more than 100 times smaller than   
      a raindrop. Because these droplets are tiny, any coloration is wan. As   
      with  rainbows, in order to see these inconspicuous bows, the Sun   
      must be  at the observers back (180 degrees from the fogbow itself)   
      even if it's hidden from view.
