Abstract
IN connection with the correspondence in NATURE on the bright light on dew round the shadow of one's head, the accompanying photograph, which shows the phenomenon on dew on seakale, may be of interest. It was taken here on October 7, 1899, at 8.35 a.m. It shows the shadow of the camera, so that in spite of the irregularity of the leaves the radius of the bright light is easily measured as nearly 8°. The scale of the photograph is 8·5° to the inch.
