The term &#8220;crepuscular&#8221; comes from the Latin word &#8220;crepusculum,&#8221; meaning &#8220;twilight.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Crepuscular rays are caused by the scattering of sunlight by particles in the atmosphere, and they are accentuated when there are breaks in the clouds, allowing the sunlight to stream through in visible beams. These rays can create a dramatic visual effect and are sometimes poetically referred to as &#8220;sunbeams&#8221; or &#8220;God rays.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>In addition to crepuscular rays, when these beams of light appear on the opposite horizon, typically just after sunset or just before sunrise, they are called &#8220;anticrepuscular rays.&#8221; These rays are less commonly seen but can be equally striking.<\/p>\n<h3>From the album &#8220;Right Now&#8221; by <a href=\"http:\/\/membrane.com\/The_Beatless_Sense_Mongers\/\">The Beatless Sense Mongers<\/a><\/h3>\n<h2><a href=\"http:\/\/kingarthur.com\/MegaEpix-Enormous\/\">MegaEpix Enormous<\/a><\/h2>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Crepuscular-Rays.mp3 Crepuscular-Rays.mp4 (Nice, oh so nice) (Look twice, so nice) [Verse 1] You, yes, you A breakthrough Like the first light In the twilight [Chorus] Crepuscular rays Adding light to my days Crepuscular rays Bringing light in so many ways [Instrumental, Flute Solo, Piano, Bass] [Verse 2] You, yes, you Bring the light Making day [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"nf_dc_page":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[3,9,14,3955,24],"tags":[546,563,3968],"class_list":["post-34382","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-4d-music","category-daniel","category-lyrics","category-megaepix-enormous","category-the-beatless-sense-mongers","tag-mp4","tag-music-videos","tag-right-now"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"http:\/\/kingarthur.com\/songwriter\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/34382","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"http:\/\/kingarthur.com\/songwriter\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"http:\/\/kingarthur.com\/songwriter\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/kingarthur.com\/songwriter\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/kingarthur.com\/songwriter\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=34382"}],"version-history":[{"count":2,"href":"http:\/\/kingarthur.com\/songwriter\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/34382\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":34402,"href":"http:\/\/kingarthur.com\/songwriter\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/34382\/revisions\/34402"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"http:\/\/kingarthur.com\/songwriter\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=34382"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/kingarthur.com\/songwriter\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=34382"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/kingarthur.com\/songwriter\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=34382"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
