Photographer Captures A Once-In-A-Lifetime Shot Of A ‘Horizontal Rainbow’ That Filled The Whole Sky

No matter how hard we’re trying to advance the technology we have, Mother Nature always is insurmountable. Natural phenomena keep surprising and amazing us, as the Nature’s miracles are the only works of art.

While Cessna Kutz, a photographer was out on a Monday afternoon along the Lake Sammamish shores, a quick shower along with the sun colored the environment with some magical shades, and created a breath-taking fire rainbow.

The optical phenomena is also known as circumhorizontal arc, and occur when the sun is above 58 degrees in the sky.

They’re made by cirrus clouds, very feathery and thin clouds, made from hexagonal ice crystals. In case they get aligned optimally, these ice crystals become a prism which causes refraction which looks like a rainbow.

So, they’re technically not a rainbow, but they’re majestic, without a doubt!

These are arcs which can be created by both, the moon and the sun, however they’re much rarer during the night.

The recurrence of these coronas relies upon the area specifically scope. Hence, they can be seen less habitually in scopes further from the equator, and just when the sun is at a specific rise in the sky.

In the United States, they normally show up in the late spring, yet they once in a while structure in mid-scope and northern Europe.

The pictures went viral in a blink of an eye, and Cessna admitted:

I genuinely had no clue these photographs would make the news. I was simply needing to share an excellent second I got the chance to observe.

It’s supported my photography business just as have an effect on individuals so it feels really astounding.

She sees the ‘rainbow’ as a message:

Seeing this phenomenon during these very hard times, gave me reassurance, hope, and peace, the reassurance that God has the whole situation under control. This is only going to be temporary and we must focus on spreading positivity and love, instead of fear!
