Default Loggable?

I could see the
ground below me at 6,000 feet, but I couldn't see a damn thing in front
of me because of the sun in my eyes and the haze, so I asked for and was
given the ILS 28. I intercepted and flew the glideslope down just like
I'd do in IMC, and I finally saw the runway when I was about 500 AGL. So,
is that a loggable approach or not?


Did you =require= instruments to be able to keep the dirty side down?
If you could see the ground below you, you have an external visual
reference for up and down. This is a far cry from flying =solely= by
reference to instruments, as in when you are actually in the soup.

I would not log it as instrument time.
