Need help finding a video for a school project!

[jamesbond007]

Hey guys! I'm working on a project for school and have had a hard time coming up with a multimedia video that describes what a parhelia/parhelion.

For those of you who don't know what it is:
http://dictionary.reference.com/search?q=parhelion

I've tried Google for a while and have come up empty handed. I can only find still images. I've checked NASA.gov, too, but no dice. Can you uber-1337 Internet gurus help me out? Just a short clip or even if it's a long one, I can truncate it.

Thanks in advance!!!

Quick, someone videotape themselves tossing their Matrox Parhelia across the room!

Hahaha, that is my trouble! Damn Matrox! I get 2938749237492379472394 hits for a dang Matrox card.

a good definition is here:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Parhelia

from that theres a couple links showing pictures.

http://ww2010.atmos.uiuc.edu/(Gh)/guides/mtr/opt/ice/sd.rxml

i dont think you are likely to find a video showing this. a sundog moves with the sun so its not that exciting. you are better off making a powerpoint or flash animation to show the physics behind it

Thanks for the tip and URLs, cerebusPu. I'm already making a PowerPoint for it, but I would have liked a video. I agree that my chances are slim to none for a good video, but it was worth a shot.
