Tyndall Effect or Tyndall Scattering.
Definition: The Tyndall effect is the scattering of light as a light beam passes through a colloid. The individual suspension particles scatter and reflect light, making the beam visible. The amount of scattering depends on the frequency of the light and density of the particles.
Being a Science Student I never really noticed the Tyndall Effect in such a pure form. I only use to know the practical which was in the course syllabus of school laboratory. Although I really thinks that I was lucky to have this beautiful click while passing through a street in Udaipur.
