6月下旬,在土耳其布尔萨省的乌鲁达乌山的公路旅行中,这些摩托车手发现自己在低云和雾中。明亮的太阳在他们的正后方,从大山的一侧向下望去,呈现出一种美丽的、大气的荣耀和雾弓。一些人将其称为海利根沙因或破碎的幽灵,有时也可以从飞机甚至高层建筑上看到这种荣耀。它通常看起来像一个被明亮的光环包围的黑暗巨人。当然,这个黑暗的巨人只是观察者投射在太阳对面的影子(90MB视频)。云和雾是由非常小的水滴组成的,比雨滴还小,它们折射和反射阳光,形成了荣耀的彩色光环和更广泛的雾弓。

On a road trip up Mount Uludağ in Bursa province, Turkey these motorcyclists found themselves above low clouds and fog in late June. With the bright Sun directly behind them, the view down the side of the great mountain revealed a beautiful, atmospheric glory and fog bow. Known to some as the heiligenschein or the Specter of the Brocken, a glory can also sometimes be seen from airplanes or even high buildings. It often appears to be a dark giant surrounded by a bright halo. Of course the dark giant is just the shadow of the observer (90MB video) cast opposite the Sun. The clouds and fog are composed of very small water droplets, smaller than rain drops, that refract and reflect sunlight to create the glory's colorful halo and this more extensive fog bow.
