  • A vibrant shaft of light illuminates a tumbleweed on the floor of Antelope Canyon in Page, Arizona. Antelope Canyon is a slot canyon that was carved by violent flash floods. Beams of light form only when the sun is nearly overhead, lighting up the blowing sand that fills the canyon, which is dozens of feet deep. The Navajo people call the canyon Tsé bighánílíní dóó Hazdistazí, which means "the place where water runs through rocks."

  • A vibrant shaft of light shines on the floor of a particularly narrow section of Upper Antelope Canyon on Navajo tribal land in Page, Arizona. The Navajo people call the canyon Tsé bighánílíní dóó Hazdistazí, which means "the place where water runs through rocks." The slot canyon is formed primarily by erosion during flash floods; torrents of water race through the canyon and sculpt the sandstone.

  • A circumzenithal arc appears to stretch across the tops of trees on Cougar Mountain near Bellevue, Washington. Circumzenithal arcs appear as upside-down rainbows and are the brightest and most colorful of all the solar halos. They appear when the sun is relatively low on the horizon, less than 32 degrees above the horizon and ideally 20°, and cirrus clouds are overhead. Circumzenithal arcs are especially bright and vibrant because the ice crystals in the cirrus clouds are perfectly aligned, passing through almost parallel bands of light.
