Metal Print : Glory over the Pacific Ocean

Glory over the Pacific Ocean
May 20, 2008 - A deck of clouds over the Pacific Ocean. The ring-shaped, rainbow-like phenomenon, known as a glory, appears through the length of the center of this image.
The most obvious ring is about 60 kilometers wide in its center; the red and orange wavelengths are most visible. Parts of at least one inner and one outer concentric ring are also visible, however. At the northwest perimeter of the central ring, a faint patch of green hints at the presence of an outer ring. A faint orange oval is nestled in the center of the main ring as well.
Other interesting features in the scene are the vortices at the upper right of the image. These vortices, known as Von Karman Vortices, appear downwind of islands that perturb the flow of air like a boulder creates an eddy downstream in a river. The large image shows the islands, and farther northeast, part of the Baja California Peninsula

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Glory over the Pacific Ocean" showcases a mesmerizing display of natural phenomena. Taken on May 20,2008, this image captures a deck of clouds stretching across the vast expanse of the Pacific Ocean. At its center, a ring-shaped rainbow-like phenomenon known as a glory steals the spotlight. The main ring is approximately 60 kilometers wide and exhibits vibrant shades of red and orange. As we explore this image further, additional concentric rings become visible, adding to its allure. A faint patch of green hints at an outer ring near the northwest perimeter of the central one. Nestled within the main ring lies a subtle orange oval that adds another layer to this already enchanting scene. Beyond these stunning optical phenomena lie other intriguing features: vortices located in the upper right corner of the photograph. These Von Karman Vortices form downwind from islands that disrupt airflow similarly to how boulders create eddies downstream in rivers. In fact, if you examine closely, you can spot some islands and part of Baja California Peninsula farther northeast. This awe-inspiring satellite view offers us glimpses into nature's artistry—cloud streets forming rows across an expansive ocean canvas adorned with rainbows and vortices dancing gracefully amidst it all. It serves as a reminder that even in vast spaces devoid of human presence, there exists beauty beyond imagination—a spectacle worth cherishing forever.
