Fire Rainbow...
« on: October 27, 2006, 08:09:16 AM »
THIS IS A FIRE RAINBOW - THE RAREST OF ALL NATURALLY OCCURRING ATMOSPHERIC PHENOMENA.
 
THE PICTURE WAS CAPTURED THIS WEEK ON THE IDAHO/WASHINGTON BORDER.  THE EVENT  LASTED ABOUT 1 HOUR.
 
 CLOUDS HAVE TO BE CIRRUS, AT LEAST 20K FEET IN THE AIR, WITH JUST THE RIGHT AMOUNT OF ICE CRYSTALS AND THE SUN HAS TO HIT THE CLOUDS AT PRECISELY 58 DEGREES.

KEWL!  Pic and attachment feature of the new software both.  grin

Do you have a higher resolution image of that?  I think its worth getting printed and framed.

Very cool.  I've seen little pieces of something like that, but never anything that big.
