Colourful arc (Eritque arcus)

One morning at the beginning of November, I suddenly realised there was a beautiful rainbow.... and there wasn't a cloud in the sky!!!

It was a huge arc, even zoomed right out I couldn't get the top of it, let alone the far right hand side.

I don't know when I last saw one quite so impressive.
