The Albatross and the Rainbow

The Albatross and the Rainbow
The Southern Ocean is usually too cloudy for rainbows. Just briefly the sun broke through and I watched a circling Royal Albatross, hoping that it would pass through the rainbow. Eventually it did, though away from me (see note). Then, to my delight, it turned back.

Explored.

That's the closest I have seen a rainbow, either in reality or in a photo. A real eye opener George.
If there was a pot of gold there, I can appreciate why you are keeping quiet about it ;-)

A magic moment wonderfully frozen in time! Maybe they look funny when starting or landing but in flight they are amazing.
