    Weird sun set yesterday... light from the east?



    that is the east... the sun sets in the west and was almost directly behind me...

    normally i'd say reflecting/refracting light from clouds but there is to much perfect symmetry in the dark lines... they all merge to one point...

    any meterologists here?

    no one else thinks it's weird for light to come from the east at 5:18pm...

    Was the sun on a treadmill? j/k

    Looks like -sun was lighting the bottoms of the clouds, that's pretty normal- might have been fairly high altitide clouds....

    The shadows don't look to me to be converging, more like they are parallel- the sun is so far away that the light rays that arrive from it are very close to parallel so shadows don't get bigger further away like we are used to seeing from a lightbulb-

    Dunno, wasn't there, would have to see it

    no... the sun is behind that picture... not in it... that is what makes it weird and makes no sence...

    also since my camera batteries were dead i had to have a co-worker take pictures on her 4 MP cell phone... she didn't get the intire burst... but it made a fan like pattern that merged in one point...

    it freaked me out...
