White Rainbow



It was the last day of the Capertee Valley trip.  I woke up from a dream; someone wanting to photograph something. The dream had a sense of urgency about it.  Photograph something.  It was 6:30AM.  I looked out the window and saw the sky was clear.  No rain. No rain clouds.  Ok, I thought, photograph something.  I had my cup of tea, collected my gear and walked out the back door.  The sun had not yet risen above the cliffs.  Streams of fog were rolling in.  Pink light still hinted at a sunrise.  The cold bit at my fingers.  But I strode out into the waking day, binoculars and camera in hand. On the way back I was presented with a white rainbow.  It is a rare weather phenomenon. I had to ask my father, and Google it to find this info.   I happened to be in the right place at the right time to see it.  I thanked the day for giving me such a gift.
