Light can't be Monochromatic

The lone plaque at Inspiration Point Wayside in Mount Rainier National park reads, "To foresee the beauty of Mount Rainier one must know many things - rivers, tumbling from boulder to boulder... a tiny fawn nestling under a shrub... flower fields that stretch unending distances... glaciers grinding and tearing at the high mound of rock... And of men who were drawn to this mountain as surely as if a great magnet has pulled them. All of these things are separate, but all are a part of the story of Mount Rainier. "

 

- John Barnett, former park naturalist, 1978

I could add a book more to that, but for now ponder John's words and watch the last rays of sun.
