Known as a “Fire rainbow” or circumhorizontal arc. Seen only in the middle latitudes 6 weeks on either side of summer solstice. Must have cirrus clouds with the sun at an angle of around 50 degrees. Pretty rare.

Thank you Rob
Cool! I can sort of imagine the rest of the rainbow – even with above info! 🙂
So beautiful.
Wonderful capture of a moment.
Sounds like you caught a real treasure.
Isn’t that something? Great capture, Ruth!
