cloudburst

The evening sky 2 days ago was momentarily spectacular (thank goodness my red bubble winter training meant i had my camera with me …)
I love how the rays are in three distinct sectors but don’t know why that is …

    Nice crepuscular rays (just for keyword tagging!) :)

  • dinghysailor1 replied

    Thank you pigleT for the great comment and so welcome link! I knew you’d be able to shed some light (sorry:) ) on things ! :)) The three equal looking sectors of light look kind of neat – is this just because of the clouds shape in relation to the sun … or anything else…? cheers and thanks so much again!

    Glory be Dinghy. The mystery is simple to solve. The Sun’s rays are deflected & diffused by the clouds or so I am told. I actually thought it was caused by a jet flashing his head lights at another jet for cutting him up at a junction but what do I know. XX
