Everlasting Promise.

This morning when I pulled open the curtains at 4:55, this is the sight I saw.


click on photo to enlarge.




The whole sky was overcast with just a small crack in the clouds in the East, (to my right as I took the picture). This start of a rainbow was to the North, North West. I suspect that the predominance of red has something to do with the low angle the suns rays were striking the water droplets. All together it lasted less than 5 minutes and the clouds closed and it was gone.


I wonder how many saw it, not many I suppose.

If anyone missed it, just look at the picture. A very nice shot, for sure.

Phew Phil, that's an amazing sighting. Glad I can share it even though I'm 5000km+ away ! Has school broken up yet? Love and blessings, Jo
