Vanishing point as the "direction point", as lines having the same directional vector, say "D", will have the same vanishing point. Mathematically, let be a point lying on the image plane, where is the focal length (of the camera associated with the image), and let be the unit vector associated with , where . If we consider a straight line in space with the unit vector and its vanishing point , the unit vector associated with is equal to , assuming both are assumed to point towards the image plane. When the image plane is parallel to two world-coordinate axes, lines parallel
Anticrepuscular rays Anticrepuscular rays Anticrepuscular rays, or antisolar rays, are atmospheric optical phenomena similar to crepuscular rays, but appear opposite of the Sun in the sky. Anticrepuscular rays are nearly parallel, but appear to converge toward the antisolar point due to linear perspective. Anticrepuscular rays are most frequently visible around sunrise or sunset. Appearing to radiate from the Sun, crepuscular rays usually look much brighter than anticrepuscular rays. This is because the atmospheric light scattering making the crepuscular rays visible occurs at low angles to the horizon (see Mie theory). Although anticrepuscular rays appear to converge toward the antisolar point, the convergence
