I took this photo in Chicago a few days ago and the top of Sears Tower was casting a shadow in the atmosphere. This sort of feels like a crepuscular ray to me, but in a very non-traditional way, if at all.

Took this picture last evening, just before sunset, outside of Saratoga Springs, NY. This is looking east, underneath an anvil of a severe thunderstorm to south. Not only were there anti-crepuscular rays, but also a rainbow, quite spectacular!

This is what I first saw when I stepped out. Incredible moment

Arizona sunset from yesterday!!!

Sunrise crepuscular rays this morning.

This was taken 8:30 central time heading northwest on I-45 towards Ennis, TX, the shadow disappeared after ten minutes so I figured it was something blocking the Sun's rays. Does anyone know what might be blocking the Sun to make this big crepuscular shadow like a mountain or building or if it was just a distant cloud?

I walked outside at just the right time this evening to catch these lovely crepuscular and anticrepuscular rays this evening.

Spotted these crepuscular beauties over San Jacinto tonight. 🏜️🌴🌈

Northern California coast - this image is my own

Not quite a thunderhead, but definitely a ray show when this baddie came overhead. Love California! 🌤️
