Apparently a fragmentary #SunPillar 20 minutes after sunset last evening from Bochum, Germany, with the Sun more than 3° below the horizon: didn't know that this #AtmosphericalOptics phenomenon - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Light_pillar - was 'permitted' at such a late stage. But it was striking to the naked eye then and but one of several wild and intense #afterglow effects in a very complicated cloud environment. The pillar vanished only when the solar depression approached 4°.
