This is not something unusual before sunrise in the East. Nevertheless the clouds and the colour was soothing to our mind and senses early in the morning. The sun could be mistaken to be in the clouds above forming the rays below, but that was not the case. The sun was in fact rising from the left of the photo which is not seen in this picture. The orange hue is something I look forward every morning before the entire sky turns blue.
