Moonrainbow - Goffen

Jølster

A light night shower sidelighted by the moon.

Not quite bulls-eye regarding theme, but i just had to share this. I just heard about moonrainbows existence about a week ago, and this weekend i had the fortune of seeing one, and managed to squeeze off a few handheld shots before it disappeared.

That is really something! I have never heard of it before - I had to look it up - you must have been really pleased to get such a good image of it! I will have to keep my eyes open now too. Thanks a bunch for sharing.

I've never heard of them either! How amazing is that, I'm sure having that nice full moon helped the rainbow to form too. So just enough sprinkles falling from the clouds and a good bright moon, why not a moon rainbow! Glad you posted it. I bet hardly any of us has ever seen one until now.
