Mt. Rainier casting a shadow upwards across the sky.
@CriticalCupcake you do like finding farty mountains.
@CriticalCupcake That is incredible. That kind of shit is why ancient people believed in gods.
@CriticalCupcake oooh I saw that from my living room window that morning. It was so cool! I'm glad you captured this because I couldn't get a good shot of it and I wanted to show my kids.
@CriticalCupcake Cast the ring back from whence it came!
@CriticalCupcake Never saw anything like this before. 😮
@CriticalCupcake Wow! It’s hard to believe it’s real! That is incredibly cool.
@CriticalCupcake Mt. Rainier is a person. I am telling you. It is an actual entity. It wanders around, gets bigger, gets smaller, changes location on the horizon, disappears, and then does stuff like this!
@CriticalCupcake I love living here so much
@CriticalCupcake beautiful. It was great living in Seattle on the odd day when Mt Rainer made an appearance!
@CriticalCupcake
Cool and alien movie-esque. Love it.
@CriticalCupcake I've been lucky enough to see this once before! Every morning if I'm out I always look at the mountain to look again ha!
@CriticalCupcake Wow gorgeous and quite the shot
@CriticalCupcake Wow, I have never seen that effect before - amazing.
@JPMasters @CriticalCupcake Me too, never seen such amazing effect. It looks unreal but yet it's real.
@CriticalCupcake that is so awesome!! I love this. Very inspiring. I’m a writer of weird fiction and this is just like major fertile ground for all kinds of stories. Thanks!
@CriticalCupcake Mt Rainier is gorgeous. I saw her this summer for the first time and am a devotee.
@nathaliaassaad sun is lower in the sky than the mountain, can happen at sunrise and sunset if conditions are right
@CriticalCupcake
Absolutely Glorious.
But shhhh, let's not wake the sleeping giant. 🌋
@CriticalCupcake I can't wait to see the mountain again
@CriticalCupcake Very cool! Nice #sunset colors, too.

@CriticalCupcake That happens when the sun gets far down enough, right?
Oooh, I found an article about it.
