The rainbow before the rain

I'm cheating a little.... I took this last night. We had just gotten back to the property after uploading my chain shot yesterday when I spotted this incredible rainbow. I KNEW it was going to be my photo of the day but I was too lazy to drive home and upload. So, you get it now!! I think this was the most colourful rainbow I have ever seen. You could even see the violet/purple at times. It POURED with rain shortly after this shot.

Here's another shot I got: http://365project.org/kwind/extra-shots/2012-07-23
