John McSporran, a retired policeman, captured a beautiful image when two phenomena of foggy rain and "ghosts" (Brocken specter) occurred at the same time on Mount Ben A'an, Trossachs, Scotland, Sun on 10 / 1 reported.

The "specter" phenomenon, also known as the Brocken rainbow , occurs when sunlight shines through a person standing on the top of a mountain, causing their shadows to appear on the clouds floating on the mountainside.

McSporran said he climbed to the top of Ben A'an early in the morning to watch the sun rise."When the Sun rose to the top, I suddenly found a fog of rain with my 'ghost' in the middle," John recalls.

Rainbows and ghosts are two rare phenomena that are difficult to capture at the same time.

"This is the first time I've seen these two phenomena appear at the same time. It's a wonderful and rare moment , " John said.
