Moon Rainbow

[Derek Klepp]

Thought I was seeing things until I realised the full moon was setting behind me.This is the first time I have seen a complete Rainbow from the moonlight.

Nice take Derek, I have never thought of that happening because I've never seen one but the physics would indicate that it should be quite common. Maybe due to the moon only being bright enough to cause the refraction over a few nights of the month, the occasion of this occurring with a precipitous cloud event maybe less common. Either way, you've recorded the event beautifully, well done.
