How many people turn around when they watch a beautiful sunset? Not many, but here are a few good reasons why they should. Anticrepuscular rays are spectacular optical phenomena that are quite rare and they require the viewer to have his or her back to the sun or sunset point. Like crepuscular rays, covered here earlier, they are columns of sunlit air streaming through gaps in clouds. Yet while the former seem to converge from the sun, anticrepuscular rays converge toward the antisolar point – the point in the sky directly opposite the sun – creating some stunning effects. Nothing supernatural here or is there? Radiating from this ship in Ye Liou, Taiwan? Anticrepuscular rays actually do not radiate from one point but are parallel shafts of light. They produce an optical illusion explained by DA Vinci’s linear perspective according to which at distance, all things convert to a central point. It’s similar to a long, straight road converging toward the horizon regardless of which way one is looking. The illusion is even more spectacular when the anticrepuscular rays seem to converge from an object like the ship above or this rock at Horseshoe Canyon in Utah, below.
With a tinge of pink, in Florida: The hours around dusk and dawn are called the crepuscular hours (literally: relating to twilight) and have given this light phenomenon its name. Dusk and dawn are the times of the rays’ most frequent occurrences because then, the contrast between light and dark is the most obvious. Seen from a plane while flying over Arizona: If crepuscular rays are called God’s Fingers, would anticrepuscular rays be the opposite, the Devil’s Feelers maybe? Divine intervention? We can see why these images are often used for religious pamphlets: The image below seems to show anticrepuscular rays converging from a gorgeous glory, captured above the clouds on a flight to southwestern Tennessee. Below the clouds, the phenomenon would have been observed as crepuscular rays. Rays and glory: The last pic should clear up any questions about anticrepuscular rays: Panoramic view of anticrepuscular rays over Chandler, Arizona: | ||||||

Strange how laughter looks like crying without sound, and how raindrops look like tears without pain.
What's better... a lie that draws a smile, or the truth that draws a tear???
