Moonbow over the Pacific Ocean in Tahiti


I just got home from work (weekend!) and got to wandering as I blogged and found an image of Clouds that look like UFOs at boingboing. Thanks to being on "this side" of the Sierra Nevadas, Reno;s skies are often filled with the most fascinating lenticular clouds (here is a Wikipedia description of lenticular clouds), so I wanted to check out the Google images link in that boingboing post.

That would be how I found the Starry Night Photography site. Surfing through the images I found a Lunar Rainbow - Moonbow.

If I ever knew that there were moonbows, I don't remember today. Up until today, I can see myself inventing moonbows and putting them on some futuristic planet that I wrote about in an effort to be creative. Yet, seems that even in nature everything is already invented!

Unless I move again, I may never seen a moonbow. Rainbows are rare in the desert.

  1. What a cool photo. I can honestly say that I have never seen a moonbow before. In fact, it's been ages since I even saw a rainbow!

  2. There was one good rainbow this summer after a thunderstorm. They're pretty rare in the desert too.

My Favorite Things

Thirteen of My Favorite Things Raindrops on roses, and whiskers on kittens.... I love watching and singing along to a great musical. When I was a kid I used to run about singing like life was a musical. People would ask me what I was singing, but I was just making it up as I went. And I love dancing. I talked my mother into letting me take ballet lessons for a little while. But I wasn’t graceful and my ballet teacher didn’t have very liberal thoughts on teaching children. If you sucked, she let you know. But, she couldn’t ever accuse me of not enjoying dancing. All my favorite songs are either on soundtracks, or are great story like “Desperado” by the Eagles. Listing thirteen favorites might be the subject of another Thursday Thirteen. Some of the movie songs I’ve listened to while typing today: Da Funk by Daft Punk on The Saint soundtrack and #1 Crush by Mundy on the Romeo & Juliet soundtrack. Writing. I can get lost in writing. I love creating stories and characters. Apparently e
