Rare Rainbow phenomenon
« on: April 01, 2007, 08:50:18 AM »
(did I spell the big P word right? ???)

A Fire Rainbow
This is a fire rainbow - the rarest of all naturally occuring atmospheric phenomena.

The picture was captured on the Idaho/Washington Border the even laster about 1 hour.

Clouds have to be cirrus, at least 20k feet in the air with just the right amount of ice crystals and the sun has to hit the clouds at precisely 58 degrees.

Didn't cost me a dime!  It was mostly on the government, and the rest on my school.
