writes and yet this strange sort of rainbow [ A UUEncoded file (DSC_0003.jpg) was included here. ] You get that pretty spectrum effect in thin clouds reasonably often at high latitudes. It's caused by tiny ice crystals all pointing the same way. They're one of the rewards of cycling, people in cars often can't see them.
