A “recoiling emitting plasma particle”, what crankish nonsense.  Read on the 
plasma state of matter, and stellar nucleosynthesis, before further 
comments, will you?

Nonsense.  One photon, which emerges as such when it hits the observer’s 
retina, carries energy E = pc = ℎc∕λ = ℎf (IOW: p = ℎ∕λ) which is used to 
activate the proteins in the photoreceptor cells in the retina.  (It has 
been shown [I can cite papers] that one photon suffices for that, but 
naturally there are considerably more photons involved in visual 
perception.)  Only in *that* sense momentum p of the photon is involved at 
the observer’s side of the process.
