Here is a photo of a stunning a sun-pillar reflecting light from a Sun setting over Östersund, Sweden.Sun Pillars occur typically during sunrise or sunset; when sunlight is reflected off the surface of falling ice crystals associated with thin high-level clouds, like Cirrostratus clouds. The crystals are hexagonal, plate-like crystals and as they fall they are forced into a horizontal orientation due to resistance from air.The result is the reflection of this beautiful pillar of light. -Jean Image Credit: Göran Strand -- source link
