Winged Globe
Louisiana, on Aug 25, 2003

From Louisiana this morning, around 8:00 CT, a good Winged Globe. Also notice that the 2 sun effect is becoming increasingly viewable, even without the use of lens filters.

The Winged Globe is also caused by the presence of the personas on one side of the Sun. Here, the very Occulting Sun shows the presence of the large, bright Red Persona on the lower side of the Sun. Wings uplifted, tail feathers tucked down, the bird coming in for a landing.
