Gorgeous , brilliant sun rays. I like how the rays light up some of the foliage on the ground. Beautifully done.

I am not always a fan of using sun rays and star bursts - but this is a great composition and beautiful image, Ray!

Thanks Carol! My followers on other platforms love my "sunrays" images so I tend to shoot a few  every sunrise and sunset if possible. Ray
