Learned something new = sun or light pillars. Pretty cool - I thought it was just caused by a break in the clouds. Thanks! Love the colors here Shirley!

A peaceful and rare "light pillar" event.

Thanks Brenda, it was the most visible one I'd seen. It was a bit lighter out, but I decided to leave it like it is, a bit underexposed, because it showed up more this way. I've seen your shots of these sun pillars, I liked them too.

Stunning!!! We usually get sun pillars at sunrise here. This one is glorious.

Thanks guys, it was like magic to see, when the sun was up a bit higher it looked like 2 suns, one right on top of the other.

That light ray going vertical, that is the hope for the new year,
