lighteffect photos on Flickr

As we went down the Thames Estuary I noticed this effect of the light on the North side of the ship; it's plainly a refraction effect of the Sun on the Fog. It occupied quite a large arc, and I had to use the wide angle lens to capture it all.

You can see the railing from Waverley's upper deck, also, if you look closely enough, the shadow of one of Waverley's masts.

This photo was taken midway between Tilbury and Southend.

Something that was rather odd was that although the boat was swarming with photographers, some of whom were standing near to me, none of them seemed to take any notice of it. It lasted for some minutes, and I'd have certainly thought it was visible from the rest of the upper deck area.

I've never seen this before, information from other Flickr members will be very welcome, along with suggestions on how to improve it!

Ian from New Zealand has kindly identified this phenomenon as a 'Glory' and provided a Wikipedia link, which is

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Glory_(optical_phenomenon)

Tim Stone, (see below) has written to say that this isn't a Glory, it's a Fog-bow! So another change of title!

For more on Fog bows (and a great picture) see Tim's link; it's:-

The Street Parade is with over 1 million visitors the most attended technoparade in the world, since the end of Love Parade 2010. It takes place in Zurich, Switzerland and is the largest annual event in Zurich.

Colorful Carpenter! by Dr. Raj Kumar Jayapal

The black carpenter bee showcases important scientific elements in this image:

Light Physics, Love Chemistry and Plant Biology.

1. Physics of Light: The florescence on its wings is due to reflection of the sun rays that fall on the wings at a certain incidence angle. Those who love about light and reflections can study light patterns by analyzing the surface structure of its wings.

2. Biological Phenomenon: Love happens between plants through the process called as pollination. The nectar attracts all animals from tiny insects to birds like sunbirds and hummingbirds. When they consume nectar, their food, the plants paint up the animal bodies with pollen. Once a plant's pollen lands in another plant's flower, it pollinates the flower and it bears fruit.

Such love spread by bees is called as apiphily. Here the orange-yellow pollen grains are seen on this carpenter bee's body.
