Spotted during a November walk on Kilchoman beach, a short stump rainbow out on the horizon over the Atlantic.

Wind and storm gusts are quite difficult to photograph, usually you feel and hear them more than you see them. I hope this picture gives at least an idea, if you look closely you can see the ripples from the storm gust in the shallow water left behind by a retreating wave.
