This past Sunday I was struck by a sort of "Glory" phenomenon while walking along the top of the dyke going N from Horton Landing. The quasi-Glory was visible at both near and rather far distances between 7:15-8:30 AM. I was able to capture the effect quite well in photos, although I suppose it's always better in person. I'm not confident this was a true Glory as there was no rainbow effect. The true Glory process is discussed here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Glory_(optical_phenomenon) Four photos showing the phenomenon are here: http://rickwhitman.smugmug.com/Nature/Glory-Photos/25057548_TGdsjQ#!i=2053223830&k=wK8fSJ2 A good book on optical phenomena is "Light and Colour in the Outdoors" by M.G.J. Minnaert 1993 translation Rick Whitman
