Solar Rocket

For something I have really never seen this is the second time in past six months I have had the change to capture this.
I don't now for sure why this happens but it may be due to ice fog in the air.
How ever it happens it is very cool and only lasts for no more than five minutes at most.
Getting in the perfect spot and then shooting it is a challenge all on its own..............
This is one of those images I call my "ROCK" image "Right Outa Camera Kids" ......
It's to bad we have to resize for the web as Pbase processing really adds some ugly blocks to the image.

Nikon D700 ,Nikkor 24-70mm f/2.8 AF-S ED IF G N
1/1000s f/10.0 at 70.0mm iso200 full exif

other sizes: small medium original auto
