A heiligenschein is an optical effect where sunlight is refracted inside millions of tiny dewdrops back to my line of vision. A bit like when car headlights shine onto a big road sign at night time giving it the appearance of it glowing in the dark.
If you STILL can't see the effect in this picture, at least the photo itself has a nice abstractness about it.
Taken earlier on this morning when it was sunny with heavy dew on the grass.
