Fascinating pic of an incredibly rare weather phenomenon – known as a fogbow

Fascinating pictures show the moment an incredibly rare weather phenomenon – known as a fogbow – was captured by an amateur photographer.

Sylvan Buckley, spent a night in the frosty Highlands waiting for the sun to rise.

Sylvan Buckley captured a rare fog bow beside Loch Baa on Rannoch Moor, in the Scottish West Highlands.

But he was left speechless when he spotted the rare phenomenon which, unlike a rainbow, shows a white bow shape through the fog.

Sylvan, 41, of Saltcoats, Ayrshire, then snapped a series of stunning photographs of the bow beside Loch Baa on Rannoch Moor, in the Scottish West Highlands,

He said: “I was up in the Highlands waiting for photos of the sunrise.

“I knew there was fresh snowfall, I knew the sun was about to come up, but then I turned around and there it was.

“It looked like a rainbow but had no colour at all. It was just a sheer white rainbow.

Sylvan Buckley captured a rare fog bow beside Loch Baa on Rannoch Moor, in the Scottish West Highlands.

“It was absolutely gorgeous to see. It’s one of the things you look for but when it actually happens you just can’t believe it.”

A fogbow is similar to a rainbow, except it appears as a bow in fog rather than rain.

Due to the small water droplets, fogbows appear mostly white, with a red outer edge and blue inner edge.
