A Ray of Sunshine on a Friday Afternoon

Today, just an interesting picture taken from the front yeard of a

The ray of light is a crepuscular ray, which is Latin for "when a piece
of sunlight breaks through the clouds and makes a ray across the sky",
or something like that.

Crepuscular rays are fun, but probably not as fun as anti-crepuscular
rays, which is Latin for "cool-looking ray-like shadow effect". We wrote
about those last spring:
