I guess that's where the myth of mermaids and sirens began, very cool....glow in the dark dolphins

You may seriously be onto something. A better theory than sailors on ships so long, they'd think "I'd hit that" ... cn

love the Happy Manga nostrils ... not-love the motorboat injuries. cn

It's a shot from space showing a mountain range in China, the veins of the fan are actually rivers and dry beds as the water flows down from the mountain

I have this lovely book called EARTH (A New Perspective) of marvelous shots from space. A pic very similar to this one appears in it. Tian Shan Mountains/ Turpan Depression. cn

I've personally seen this phenomena a dozen or so times, but never was able to get it on film.
A shipmate took this "somewhere" in Hawaii.

I rode ships for 14 years - a lot of that in the Caribbean.
I don't recall seeing it anywhere else.
But then shipboard life is routinely dull & we actually used to hold a "Green flash watch" on clear evenings.
