      Summary Authors:  Piero Armando;  Jim Foster   
      The setting Sun behind the peaks of the  Orsiera-Rocciavrè Massif,   
      cast this impressive set of  crepuscular rays over Turin, Italy.   
      Though most often associated with clouds, gaps in mountain peaks can   
      also produce  lanes of shadow and sunlight. However, there must be   
      sufficient  aerosols in the atmosphere in order to result in the   
      dramatic effect shown above. Note it's  perspective that seems to   
      make the rays converge near the horizon. Photo taken on September 9,   
      2022.   
      
      Photo details: Canon EOS 600D camera;1/1250 sec. exposure; f/7; ISO   
      100; 180 mm focal length.
