Have you ever heard of a SUN DOG?
According to a wiki explanation I found, they are an atmospheric phenomenon that creates bright spots of light in the sky, often on a luminous ring or halo on either side of the sun. They are caused by ice crystals called diamond dust drifting in the air at low levels.
Here is a fantastic photo sent to me by my client (and now friend), E.H. Scott that he took yesterday morning from his back deck up on the mountain.
We are so lucky to live in this gorgeous area of Ontario.
