An amazing Sun Pillar - not really something I expected to see in the dryish Central West. Quite surreal. I had to look it up https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Light_pillar

What an amazingly beautiful world we live in :) :D

Thanks Kits :t: At first I thought it might have been a vapour trail, but they faded out and this pillar just kept on shining .... magical, beautiful, and intriguing all at once. It took quite some head scratching to figure it out .... :)
