“Rainbow”

Took this right after some rain. Interesting visual phenomenon, which is expected… rainbows are typically lighter in color underneath (due to how the non-rainbow-forming light rays reflect in the same raindrops), and the center of the circle of a rainbow has to do with where my head was (the shadow of my head creates the anti-solar point, the center of the rainbow), and I was in-line with that house and the sun at my back.
