After a short rain storm, we were treated to this delightful sight. Unfortunately, the camera on my European mobile phone doesn’t capture the incredible color brilliance of this particular rainbows. The colors were so crisp, and even the blues and purples so vibrant, you could swear they were stained glass that could be cracked out of the sky. Go index of refraction!
