I've never seen this one before.
Once a Year on Veterans Day at 11:11 am on Nov. the 11th the Sun Shines Perfectly on this memorial in Anthem, AZ. The sun's rays pass through the ellipses of the five armed services pillars to form a perfect solar spotlight over a mosaic of The Great Seal of the United States.

Solar alignment monuments have been constructed for 1,000s of years, and this is a nice example utilizing the best of the old and the new.
