Fire Rainbow




I saw this coming back today from a haircut. It took about 15 minutes to get back to the office after first seeing this, then I had to go up to my office on the 8th floor to get my camera, and then go back down the elevator, and then find a spot where I could get a picture between the buildings. While these photos came out pretty good, the whole thing was much brighter, and much more distinct, about 10 minutes before I took these pictures. Oh, well! A fire rainbow, better known as a circumhorizontal arc, is a pretty rare optical phenomenon. You can learn more about it at:
