If you're wondering WTF you're looking at, the following is from Wikipedia to explain what a Glory Shadow is:
"A glory is an optical phenomenon that resembles an iconic saint's halo about the shadow of the observer's head. The effect is believed to happen due to classical wave tunneling, when light nearby the droplet tunnels through air inside the droplet and, in the case of Glory, is emitted backwards due to resonance effects."
And now you know.

Nice.
Watched and commented on a 2010 MacBook Pro while drinking a cappucino prepared with a DeLonghi ESAM 3500 Magnifica Automatic Cappuccino maker.

@03SC
I believe you missed the point.
Telling us what kind of device you used is irrelevant and only serves as advertising for a multi-billion dollar corporation... so either you work for them, or you're simply a naive consumer-junkie with sequacious allegiances and a real narrow perspective on intrinsic value.

@swdgr I was thinking of that, too, but even though I tried hard, I just couldn't come up with a witty joke.
