Superb Alan!. I’ve never seen them, and probably never will being too far north (in the Southern Hemisphere) so thanks for posting.

Absolutley! Any part of a rainbow is glorious. Nice light on the cloud as well, Alan :D
I like this very much, Alan! It absolutely doesn’t have to be a “whole” rainbow.
