Amazing Rainbow over Brownsburg, Indiana on July 1, 2014

When I saw the blinds in the family room turn pale golden yellow, I went out onto the balcony to look at the sunset. I saw what looked like rain falling in sheets between me and the sun, and I saw a man walking his dog looking up over the roofline above my head.

I decided to take my dog out as an excuse to run outside and look the other direction over the roof. I saw an amazing rainbow, with hints of a double rainbow on the far right side. It was the best rainbow I can remember in at least the past few years.

My camera is already packed up in anticipation of the move to Noblesville some time in the next couple weeks. Our closing date was supposed to be yesterday but it was delayed, so we are waiting and ready. I knew I didn't have time to unpack my camera, so I snapped a few more iPhone photos. By the time I took a panoramic photo the rainbow had already thinned in the fading light.

I was a little too late getting the panoramic shot, but you can tell the rainbow was a full arc from horizon to horizon
