Initially thought it was Crepuscular Rays, but they stayed constant for over ten minutes, so I'm not convinced it was just shadows cast from clouds beyond the horizon...

The two images were taken 10 minutes apart.
Any thoughts??

Excellent images sir. i was gonna photograph them too but decided to eat dinner instead . Really i was disappointed thinking they were bands of low transparency atmosphere, and was silently cursing because Jupiter was right in the middle of one!
Them's Crepuscular Rays alrighty. If you turned around and looked to the east you may have also spotted some Anticrepuscular Rays. True !
I didn't beleive the word even existed let alone the Rays.
Grouse captures David, definitely clouds, more like storm tower shadows as was out there that day, somewhere between 2-300ks further west
Was some other photos of same with Stormchasers at that time aswell..
Spectacular crepuscular's
I shot these a couple of years ago looking east at sunset, looking west looked like yours. Took me three months or so to work out they were anticrepuscular rays.....they looked like a beam of darkness coming out of the east and passing over head, very unnatural
