This is the last day of August so time for me to pick a new them, but first to finish the month. During our daytime sightseeing flight We managed to catch a rare phenomenon - a circular rainbow. Unfortunately I didn't catch a picture of the complete circle. I think I could have if the pilot had tried a little longer to maintain the cirlce, unfortunately the steep banking required did not sit well with all passengers.
For a moment we even had a double circular rainbow happening. In order to create a circular rainbow, you have to be between the water droplets and the sun.

Zooming in tighter you can see a more intense band of colour.
