Details:
Distant Cumulus clouds hovering in front of the setting Sun cast shadows that could be seen crossing the sky to converge at the antisolar point, not far from the 99.3% illuminated Moon. Those are called anticrepuscular rays. A Sony DSC-HX300 camera was used to take the photos between 21:00 and 21:12 UTC.
