Robin--
My comment was intended to apply to the local point in space that the light
and magnetic field were occupying. For example light passing through glass
slows down and may change directions all due to the magnetic and electric
fields it encounters in the glass. The direction can be changed without
the frequency or much intensity being being changed. However both frequency
and intensity can also change, particularly intensity--the amplitude of the
light oscillating fields. The frequency can also change significantly,
but only in rare conditions where a Doppler shift can occur. I can imagine
that this could happen in a fast moving or rotating electric or magnetic
field.
Light entering the intense magnetic field would regain its original
characteristic upon exiting the field. However, if your eyes were also in
the magnetic field they would sense the changes effected by the magnetic
field IMHO.

Hi,
[snip]
My thought was that a strong magnetic field may disrupt the oscillating
nature of the light—disturbance—as it passes through the magnetic field,
changing its frequency and or intensity and direction of propagation. I
would assume that the magnetic field intensities would add at any instant
of time and space.
If this were so, then one should see distortions of the background image
when
looking at powerful magnets. There are none AFAIK.
