Got to work in birmingham mi today for the fifth day running removing a 42" dbh American elm that died from dutch elms disease. Tree had secondaries running under it and a breeze way from hell to get through. But we could just fit the mini through to haul the wood out.

Also saw a horizontal rainbow this morning when we got there.

And the streef was lined with 120' plus English elms. Quite amazing trees if you ask me
 
Not a horizontal rainbow, a sun dog or sun halo. Sunight reflecting off of ice crystals in the upper atmosphere.

Not quite right. It is a sun halo, only the horizontal component of which is visible. A sun halo is caused by sunlight reflecting off ice crystals. A sun dog is only a very specialized version of a sun halo caused by the condition of the ice crystals causing the effect.

Best pic of sun halos I have ever seen: http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/3/30/HALO-S_south_pole.jpg
It has just about all the variations in one picture.
