Hi folks. This is a video that I took on 10/11/2012 in my backyard in Christchurch New Zealand. What do you think?

It looks almost like a soap bubble. Did you ever read the Stephen King book called Under the Dome? It looks very much like the picture on that book cover. Weird.

Yes that is a strange rainbow at first but then it starts to look more normal. I hope you made a wish.:o

Here's what wikipedia says...


In a "primary rainbow", the arc shows red on the outer part and violet on the inner side. This rainbow is caused by light being refracted while entering a droplet of water, then reflected inside on the back of the droplet and refracted again when leaving it.

In a double rainbow, a second arc is seen outside the primary arc, and has the order of its colours reversed, red facing toward the other one, in both rainbows. This second rainbow is caused by light reflecting twice inside water droplets.

Thanks for sharing!!!

FWIW, had the exact same thing over my house about six weeks ago.

No camera at the time. But, I witnessed a double rainbow over the Scituate Reservoir, in Scituate, RI, in 2008. One stretched across the sky from east to west, and the other north to south, one on top of the other. I never knew it was possible. Beautiful.

I saw that when it happened, it was pretty cool.
This summer, keep a look out for what I call chem-trail rainbows. I've seen them three times in AZ, they are a strange phenomenon. They are most likely to occur when the sun is going down from what I"ve noticed, they occur because the barium they use in chemtrailing is a 100x more refractive than water crystals.

Wow, that is a spectacular picture. I've never seen an instance where it was that pronounced. What I've noticed is the chem trail rainbows are small isolated areas of rainbow with no precipitation and the only whispy clouds being chem trails.

I"m not trying to bust any bubbles. I've never seen the examples you have photos of. I'm saying it could be what we are talking about. I'm not saying anything definitively. The examples I have seen are not so round, they are ussually snippets of a rainbow, like some one cut a small piece and placed it by itself in the sky. Also the examples I have seen don't have the explosive coloring your photos display. The examples I have seen look very mettalic with a smattering of color, like metal with an oily slick on it, like the oily slick you would see on the road after a rain.

I did a google search for chemtrail rainbows. Apparently I'm not the only one seeing them. Here are some of the pictures folks have posted.

This was from a previous post with link of news article and photo:

Well this doesnt exactly originate from humans...but thought it was a beautiful vision of the power of light :)

I agree, it's beautiful and unique. christinedream7

DNA my comment was more tongue and cheek....thx Paula for reposting! At tht time people were calling these rainbows, so i have never heard the chemtrail theory about them...wherever it originates from its an unusal spectacle of light :-)

I have seen the chem-rainbows too ! Just twice for me, once a couple months ago and also last fall.
