Crepuscular rays are beams of sunlight that pass through gaps in the clouds and are made more visible by dust, smoke and other particles in the air. They can be formed when sun rays stream through a massive obstruction such as a mountain. The sunbeams originate when the sun is below the horizon, during twilight hours.
Latin word: Crepusculum" means twilight. A remarkable sight of sun rays diverging from one point across the sky.
