Very interesting image. I like the way the beam pulls the eye down to the trees.

I love cool weather phenomena like this. I have a few shots of sun pillars and anti-crepuscular rays.
Unfortunatly this will probably be graded down because your silhouette is not the focus and not esp interesting. I'll give you a 9 to help ballance it and cause you're educating the public to interesting, unusual things to look out for. :) Good luck

Nice capture. Love how you can see the detail in the trees. The sun pillar is just wild. Nature at its galactic best. 10

This is a lovely shot, but what I noticed immediately is that I have the same piece! It had belonged to my grandmother, then my mother, now me. Small world. The amethysts in the background look beautiful.
