There’s a bit of an alga bloom in the dock area which affects the quality of the water (Hello, chemical run off from lawn care.). We were heading out for a cruise on Mort’s boat on Tuesday and I was standing at the mast when looking down I saw this marvelously complex sickly green halo around my shadow; pukey in green, abstract art in black and white. The patterns around my head are especially interesting because clean water doesn’t do that.

Yes..I see it now. The light playing in the depths of the water usually does not do that. It happens when there is a lot of particulate matter in the water and on this day there was a lot of alga in the water. It was bright green.
