Ray of Light

Sunrise is my favorite time at the Grand Canyon. It's quiet, mystical, and relatively people free. Before the sun begins to pour down over the eastern edge of the canyon, its early rays light the upper strata of the Paleozoic rocks on fire.
On a day where the cloud cover was fairly thick above, the lower Supergroup Formation never became colorful. But for this one moment, the subtle beauty of that thin ray of hope made the early morning wake-up worthwhile.
The sun shining through the clouds on New Year's Eve on the coastal path at Durlesdon Country Park, Dorset.
The golden-rayed lily or gold band lily (Lilium auratum) is a lily native to Japan. It is now cultivated in many places around the world. Its hybrid with another lily yielded an Oriental hybrid, Casablanca. Photo was taken at Higashiyama Botanical Garden, Nagoya, Japan.

"Cloud shadows and rays can be very counter intuitive!
The dark shadows look like they are pointing upwards but in reality they are angled downwards – all shadows cast by the sun must go downwards.
There is a thin layer of hazy cloud _below_ the top of the towering cumulus. The sun is casting a shadow of the cumulus cloud onto this lower layer. We see the shadow through the other side of the lower cloud layer ‘screen’. The shadow looks above the cumulus cloud simply because the shadow is closer to the camera."

One more shoot from Antilopa canyon
The light beams in Antelope Canyon are some of the most famous features and something that has always eluded me. They are best viewed when the sun is high in the sky.

"About 335 000 hectare (10%) of the Netherlands is wooded. The percentage of wooded land is not very high compared to countries such as Germany (29%), France (25%) and Belgium (20%). To protect the Dutch forest and to expand it the government has developed a policy, which was laid down in the Forestry Policy Plan. Intentions are to increase the total area under trees by 75 000 ha within the next 25 years, that is by 3 000 ha a year. The increase will be realized by the government and by provinces, local authorities, trade and industry, farmers and private persons. In the Netherlands forests are important for several purposes: recreation, timber production, nature and landscape enjoyment, and they are vital to a sound environment. The use of timber and timber products is increasing in the Netherlands. The major part is imported; only a small portion, less than 10 per cent, of the Dutch demand is produced in the Netherlands. The government is aiming to increase this percentage.Besides a means of production a forest is a bit of nature we have to cherish, for there is not much nature left in the Netherlands. Forests are important in the Dutch plans for nature. Nearly all forest is part of the national ecological network, which is a network of nature areas that are connected by ecological corridors to facilitate the survival of plants and animals."

You have to be there at the right Time to get these Rays. Beautiful Effect when visiting Sant´Antimo Monestery.
The Abbey of Sant'Antimo, Italian: Abbazia di Sant'Antimo, is a former Benedictine monastery in the comune of Montalcino, Tuscany, central Italy. It is approximately 10 km from Montalcino about 9 km from the Via Francigena, the pilgrim route to Rome. Disused for many years, the abbey has since 1992 been in use by a small community of Premonstratensian Canons Regular. A tributary of the river Orcia, the Starcia, runs near the abbey.
