Hi!

Can gravity be the elongated fields of photons?

Figure 6-15 in the book "Electromagnetic Fields and Waves" by Paul
Lorrain and Dale Corson shows how equipotential surfaces V=constant
get elongated perpendicular to the direction of propagation of a
moving point charge. At near light speed it seems that the elongation
will be very long! Also see how field lines gather at 90 degrees from
the direction of propagation:

It seems to me that a photon, that is in essence a moving EM field at
the speed of light, should be elongated as well. The photons emitted
perpendicular from a body should have the strongest field at your
point of view. Also it seems that the elongation would elegantly
explain how a single photon can interact on itself in the double slit
experiment!

Perhaps other clues to this are dyons, magnetic monopoles, dark
energy, gravity experiments by ESA and Fran De Aquino?

Comments welcomed!
