Some photos are coming to the meteoptic homapage. Unfortunately all
photos (the most colourfull) of the phenomenon (photographed at Juva)
can't be published before March 1998. That is because I take part (and
one another person) in the photographic competition "The Naturphotograph
of the year 1997" in Finland. Photos in that competition can't be
published before the end of the competition.
