Cosmic Multicultural Bucharest in the Pandemic (174):
Spring Equinox Phenomena 2022
By Andrei Dorian Gheorghe (astro-photo-poem-essay) and Florin Alexandru Stancu (design)
March 20, 2022.
The mysterious Afternoon Sun promised a special evening twilight.
I moved to the central area of the town and the haiku below anticipates what happened next:
Sun setting at the
spring equinox and the light
flaunting its wonders
After seeing the first phenomena near Saint Spiridon’s New Church (founded in the 1760s and remade in the 1850s), I chose the Union Square, where I admired a solar halo with a tangent arc and a parhelion.
Then I returned to the church, where I also saw a solar reflection.
But things didn't end there.
Generous sunset
bringing a light pillar -
sublime inertia!
