Details:
When Sunrays at the time of Sunrise or Sunset streaming through the gap of clouds in such a way that they have extraordinary effects like furrows of freshly ploughed filed or like narrow roads or like small streams of water are called Crepsuscular Rays.In Hindu mythology these rays are always shown behind the head of Goddess Gayatri ,Sun & other gods as a continuous flow of divine knowledge.
Airborn dust, organic aerosols, small water droplets, inorganic salts,air molecules etc. scatter the sunlight which create this miracle.It last from few seconds to minutes depends upon density of above said particles & sunlight.One can easily capture this show with digital camera.
Here are some beautiful pictures of this phenomena in zip (RAR) file showing the show of the sun taken by me with Sony handy cam from the observatory. You may see other such celestial pictures on the web of gurudev observatory.
