Fig. 17a may therefore be taken to represent the
 general effect of waves travelling directly towards or
 away from the spectator, and here the streak is very
 clearly defined and far too long to appear in its
 entirety on the greased glass. In Fig. 17c, which
 illustrates the condition when the waves are running
 at right angles to
 the direction of
 ! sight, the streak is
 W very short and ill¬
 A defined. Thus we
 see that when, as is
 <> generally the case,
 
one is looking ob¬
 
liquely at the sur¬
 
> . —- . face of the water,
 — the action of the
 latter kind of waves
 may almost be neg¬
 lected in compari¬
 _ son with that of the
 
3 | former. A combin¬
 
Fig. 17b. Glass turned round horizont¬
 ally through 45°. ation of the two
 forms of streak, that
 is to say, the length of the vertical streak with the
 width of the horizontal one, would give approxim¬
 ately the effect produced if the wave-surfaces faced
 equally in all directions. —
 
When the photographs shown in Plates IX and
 X were taken, the wind happened to be blowing hard
 from the north, and the ripples were travelling, as
 may plainly be seen, across the direction of sight.
