Visibility III / V
I first noticed a strong shadow in the south-west direction from the window on the south side (picture 1, 8.44). I also took a picture in the direction of the sunrise, but there are no shadows or rays of any kind (picture 2, 8.45). (Thus when reporting after the fact, I no longer remember what color the direction of the sunrise actually was. Time and again the colors came out when I tried different white balance settings). When I looked at the situation from the west-facing window, it occurred to me that it might be the shadow of the earth after all (picture 3, 8.51). However, it seems to be the same twilight ray. Oh, I wish I could have admired that from somewhere a little higher and unobstructed.
