Anti-crepuscular Rays on Colorado Plains

Anti-crepuscular rays form in the opposite direction of a sunset (in the east) converging to an antisolar point. They are caused by beams of sunlight passing though holes in clouds.

Image Notes: four frame HDR blended on non-HDR -1 EV frame and then applied a slight vignette.
