Day 347

Coming home on Tuesday presented me with an interesting atmospheric phenomenon:  Anticrepuscular Rays.  The beams of sunlight you see during a sunset (and sunrise, too, I presume) are Crepuscular Rays.  Anticrepuscular rays are the same sunbeams of light, on the opposite side of the horizon from the sunset.  Despite the apparent fanning effect, they are all parallel rays.

On Montana Highway 200 looking East at Sunset.
