    5 years ago, it could be photoshop. Today it could be AI.

    Could be multiple exposures.

    Modern phones take multiple exposures.Β 

    the clouds in from of the sun Β may it’s not a reflection or refraction.Β 

    so in guess: iPhone photo taken from a moving vehicles, does depth stacking or whatever they call it, creating 5 suns.Β

    Is there anyone here who doesn't think this is obviously a timelapse (of the very cool phenomenon of the sun moving horizontally)?

    I couldn't find the exact source, but it looks much more like multiple exposures than anything else. For example, it is entirely the wrong shape, distance, and number to be sun dogs.

    What did you find in your search?

    I found a few sources saying it's an extreme example of a sun dog, and a video, which I suppose could be AI. Another, mentioning two whole suns in Russia.

    Sun dogs happen at a specific angle and result in up to three bright spots. There are 4 lights. They are spaced unevenly and far too close together. There is no distortion and there is a cloud in front of the rightmost image. This is a timelapse of four pictures. The "video" is just the still image with motion effects added.

    Well the sun will move horizontal to the horizon near the Arctic circle during summer. So... I mean, still Alaska

    I'm from just about the arctic circle and it doesn't really look like that. I think.

    Maybe if you go above the polar circle

    Yes, you'd have to be above the Arctic circle. Search "midnight sun timelapse" images, and you'll find lots of examples. It is not actually a straight line, but moving on a curve. At this level of zoom, the curve is not apparent

    Yeah idk, I think it'd happen near the solstice at 'night' when sun doesn't really set but yeah I guess it'd never be perfectly horizontal and I don't live in the Arctic circle myself so have never seen it. Maybe it's all a big hoax, who can say

    This could only be Mayans Aztecs and Egyptians all working together with "one other things"....remember how there's one other thing besides tortillas in the new American food pyramid? Now you know why.
