Crepuscular rays?

This wasn't really discussed in my atmospheric physics class, but this is (in my opinion) a fairly beautiful drawing of crepuscular rays (at least, that's my feeling). The rays themselves are a little incomplete (that's my feeling from personal observation), but the color and balance of the picture is quite excellent. Notice the use of the sunset in the distance and the intermediate obstructions--either someone has seen this before personally or with a photograph to draw this scene, or they have excellent skills.
