Original Note:
The term for sunrays like this is ‘Crepuscular Rays’, for sunlight converging just behind the obstruction. This is due to the vanishing point of the line - a trick of perspective. When the rays extend across the entire sky, they appear to converge on both sides. https://www.britannica.com/science/crepuscular-ray
