The Opposite of Sunset - a photo on Flickriver

The Opposite of Sunset

            A strange phenomenon occurred the other night, observed over many parts of England.
After a spell of particularly hot weather, there followed a day of light rain and drizzle.  By the evening the clouds had mostly cleared but the combination of dust and water droplets at different heights in the atmosphere combined to create a particularly dramatic sunset.
Opposite to the sunset this rainbow appeared and lasted for several minutes until the sun set completely.
