Ride a Sunbeam

I was walking up the Bankhead Trail when a sunbeam caught my eye.  I took my tripod off my shoulder, set it up and rode it back down the hill a step or two until it was shining on my camera lens.  It was somewhat strange in that I didn't see it shining as a spot of light on the trail (which is usually how I find them). And, as you can see, no other sunbeams managed to get through the forest canopy.
