Aha! You had looked it up! The pogonip comes in the early, early
morning, before sunrise (or at night, when it's dark), and when we're
lucky, the morning sun burns off the fog, but the low temperatures leave
the ice crystals on everything - each twig, each slightest bit of
matter. So we have a crystal world that glints blindingly in the
brilliant sunlight. It's breathtakingly beautiful - also breathtakingly
cold - and it does take your breath.

Sounds very like a description of *you*, judging by that

The lights are table mount, you can get them in gooseneck now. I would
suggest a simple clamp on light you can get most anywhere cheap. The clamp
to the table.
