Weird Light Effect
January 31st, 2006
I noticed this on the plane to Zagreb. The cloud cover just beneath us seemed to have this strange colour pattern that was tracking the plane, so I took a picture. The first is the original, the second is a zoom to the feature.
I can’t decide whether this is caused by light diffracting through the density fluctuation caused by the aircraft and/or its engines, or if its something else entirely. The sun was directly behind the camera, so its definitely not lense flare or anything like that…

It’s a circular rainbow. Well, all rainbows are circular but from the ground the bottom half gets cut off.
And dude, use absolute URL’s for the images or what are RSS readers supposed to do?
