Rainbow around the Sun

Saturday we spent the entire day at the pool….getting out there about 11:30 or so the sun was almost at it’s highest point in the sky.  I look up out of habit when we go to the pool to check for clouds and what not.  I want to find the best place to lay for my tan! : )  Anyways.  When I looked up I yelled for Zack to go inside and grab the camera as quickly as possible. 

He went in and ran back outside and I said “look up, look up, hurry!”.  Haha.  Well you know sometimes rainbows are there one minute and gone the next and this one was one that I wanted to make sure that he saw and that I captured on camera.

The rainbow was one like I had never seen or nor heard of before.  It was encircling the sun!

Of course the whole rainbow isn’t in the photo, it was impossible to get what I did.  Out of the 15 photos from different angles this was the only one that I captured the most of the rainbow.  But y’all get the jest of it! : )

How interesting! I love rainbows, but I've never seen anything like that before. And yes, gotta love a good tan!

Just beautiful! A gift to us from an awesome God :-) I've only seen a rainbow do that one time...on a cruise ship headed out to Cozumel! It is so neat. So glad you got a pic of it!

I think they are called sundogs or something like that...isn't it so pretty? I caught a regular rainbow the other evening at our hotel.
