  • Description: Crepuscular rays, dawn, taken by Antandrus (first upload english wikipedia).

The rays appear to diverge, but this is an illusion of perspective: they are actually parallel. The cause of crepuscular rays in this case is a combination of the sun rising over distant mountains, water vapor in the air independent of the clouds, and the clouds themselves.
