A nicely captured shot, Alison. I love rainbows much. Thanks.
You might like to have a look at this quite dramitic photo of a rainbow “kissing” a tornado. It was taken in Kansas, USA in 2004 and was published late Novemeber on the NASA “Astronomy Picture Of the Day” website. Here is the link:-

I am glad your photo was taken under more clement conditions.
