'Regal Bow' Double Rainbow

'Regal Bow' Double Rainbow photograph by Dan Bush

'Regal Bow' is my name for this sublime double rainbow which appeared February 2, 2006 in  Elam Bend. Dan Bush of McFall, Missouri took this perfect shot of it. You can see more of his photos and read his photo essay of the event at missouriskies.org
