Trials of the Butterfly Bris attached to sunglasses has shown excessive and variable distortion of the sun image when nodding the head. This is perhaps caused by curvature of the sunglass lens. Better observations were made with the Bris held well out in front of the sunglasses. On Jun 23, 8:15�am, Greg Rudzinskiwrote: > Pictured is a Bris variant that I have dubbed the Dragonfly Bris. It offers a plethora of sun images in three separate fields (left,center,right). I find it too busy for my visual taste though and prefer the Butterfly Bris variant seen here attached to a pair of sunglasses using a rubber band. This arrangement works quite well. Use two pair of dark sunglasses (one over the other) to view the bright primary sun images and a single pair of medium sunglasses for dim secondary sun images. > > �IMG_1321.JPG > 110KViewDownload > > �IMG_1326.JPG > 176KViewDownload --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ Navigation List archive: www.fer3.com/arc To post, email NavList@fer3.com To , email NavList-@fer3.com -~----------~----~----~----~------~----~------~--~---
