Spectre Of The Brocken

From LoveToKnow 1911

SPECTRE OF THE BROCKEN (so named from having been first observed in 1780 on the Brocken), an enormously magnified shadow of an observer cast upon a bank of cloud when the sun is low in high mountain regions, reproducing every motion of the observer in the form of a gigantic but misty image of himself.
