Description
"rainbows in the sky" or clouds that have brilliant colors.
It's due to those high, wispy clouds . Those clouds are made of tiny ice crystals, and if the cloud is at the right angle to the sun, the crystals will refract the sunlight (much like a prism) into the colors of the rainbow.
So it's very similar to a regular rainbow-when-it's-raining, only a little more rare.
thanks for viewing and any comments
the two specks are a bird and a Southwest airline jet.I have seen such clouds before but they were near the horizon and only with a 300 lens

Really interesting !
Never seen clouds like these before Richard! thanks for sharing :)
Wonderful shot, Richard. Beautiful clouds, and interesting information. and 2 very small aircrafts :)
Its a shining creation.
Glad you explained the specks Richard, first I wiped my screen then I scrolled the picture, the thought was then is it a couple of birds or planes. There isn't that much in them at all, they are miniscule compared to the sky and the coloured clouds though. Another most excellent Texas Sky shot, a new one to me as I have never come across this before, so thanks for sharing. Spectacular work. Bravo!!!!!
Very freakin cool man, excellent shot. Pretty trippy stuff
