With the sun rising behind Aldo Brando, the photographer, these anti-crepuscular rays were spotted. Anti-crepuscular rays appear when tall clouds in front of the rising or setting sun cast long shadows across the sky which can be seen receding off into the distance when facing away from the sun, as was the case here, near Bogota, Colombia.

A unique view from 1971, wherein Mary's husband took this photograph while on a plane near Mt. Fuji, with the mountain showing itself above a layer of stratocumulus clouds, along with cirrus clouds further above in the troposphere. Mary took a picture of the slide through the lens of an old projector, in order to preserve this view of Mt. Fuji (Fujisan), Honshu, Japan.
