It does.. why is the light shining on it so much more yellow towards the rear and around the superstructure?
Nicholas:
Cloud shadow.
It is not a clear day.
Put together with what sunlight is breaking thru reflecting off of shallow greenish water that you get off that part of the gulf coast…
Looks photo-shopped to me.
I’ve seen such an effect at sea, many times. The sun is shining through gaps in, or around the superstructure of, a ship on the sunward side of the new one. It doesn’t appear to be reflection, since the sunlight is also on the helo deck at the fantail.
We quite often get the same effect here in VT on Lake Champlain.
Where’s the “evil” squirrel?
Oh, oh, I know I know!
What’s missing is the hole in the hull that a 3d world primate with his blowgun put there.
Yeah, I see, cloud shadow makes sense. I just wasn’t sure. I thought it could also be the shadow from a nearby ship.
