Skywatch Friday: Rainbow Comet




My dear left-behind friend Mary Helen took these pictures yesterday at Lover's Point in Pacific Grove. She only had her phone camera with her but she knew if she drove the 1/2 mile home to get her camera she would have missed this sight.


Cars were pulling off the road left and right. Who could blame them?
Wow, it's as if the rainbow is diving into Monterey Bay.


Happy Skywatch Friday my friends. Thank you Mary Helen!

    Wow! Not just every rainbow is that brilliant. The darkness of the rest of the sky makes it even better.

    that is a really cool photo. Miraculous. Re: forgetting to sign the page you did for my book. I wouldnt worry about it. I'm fine with it just as it is. One of the contributors to the book I'm working on now forgot to sign her page too. It happens and in fact I think I forgot several times myself. Whatever is is great. Take care, Suki

    What an interesting rainbow. Most of it must be hidden in the clouds. Wow.
