Ou est le structure?

[EA2007]

Hey all,

Completely forgotten what the 'correct' name is for the beam/line/pillar of light seen in the sunset photo below. I am sure someon can correct me on its proper name:

thanks in advance...

Also had another image I mean to upload featuring a prism of light, kind of like a rainbow but not semi-circular and not as wide, looked like a rectangle of light only about 5 degrees in width. If anyone wants to see it just ask, I think I stil have it, would like to know what casued it and if it too has a name.
