This image was captured in Shenandoah NP during the fall a few years back. The morning did not look very promising due to the heavy cloud cover, but there were a few breaks here and there so I decided to try my luck. I have to say that I am so glad that I did as this is the only time I have witnessed crepuscular rays shooting upward and downward in the same location.
As always thanks for taking a moment to leave a thought.

Ed, the crepuscular rays are outstanding. The touches of color along the horizon and on the mountainside add some fine warmth to the view. This would make a fine inspirational print.
Lucky you, Ed, to have arrived at this precise moment. “Crepuscular” . . I didn’t know that is what type of atmospheric condition is called, thanks for sharing that… . . Love the gradation of colors, which for me, reflect the fall atmosphere. Nicely done.
