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
