Contrast the magenta colors of this jaunty pillar with the reds and yellows of the pillar featured on yesterday's Earth Science Picture of the Day. Here, the Sun had not yet risen, and consequently the ice crystals are reflecting deeper colors. This photo was captured from Kamouraska, Québec (Canada) on November 23, 2004.
