Photo: Strange light in the sky

Photo by Lee Lageschulte

In case you are wondering, that bright spot of white in the top right corner of the photo is not an overexposure.

It's actually a star, which is far far away. It's called "the sun". It has appeared in our skies in the past but is usually obscured by a thick layer of clouds.

It may be visible again in the next few months but sightings are elusive because it doesn't stay around long.

Thanks to Lee Lageschulte for capturing this image.
