Aloha Rob: No, sadly, I was so surprised by the phenomenon and the rainshower that was taking place was so short-lived, that I did not have time to run out to the car and locate a camera. I failed as a Boy Scout leader to live up to its motto: "Be prepared." But I was so glad to be able to have witnessed it. I wished I had had some forethought to have contacted you before going to Hawaii, I would have enjoyed an opportunity to meet you. -----Original Message----- From: Rob Ratkowski Photography [mailto:ratkwski@hawaii.rr.com] Sent: Friday, January 25, 2008 10:29 PM To: Utah Astronomy Subject: [SPAM] - Re: [Utah-astronomy] Moonbeam? - Email found in subject Sender ALLOWED [ Remove <https://vq.co.linn.or.us/pk/banner?op=remove_from_allow&From=utah%2Dastrono my%2Dbounces@mailman.xmission.com&VU=aV47PNhFIWR67juHByvmTQ> ] [ Block <https://vq.co.linn.or.us/pk/banner?op=block_sender&From=utah%2Dastronomy%2D bounces@mailman.xmission.com&VU=aV47PNhFIWR67juHByvmTQ> ] <https://vq.co.linn.or.us/userguide/details_allow.html> details Vanquish Anti-Spam <https://vq.co.linn.or.us/pk/heldemail> Control Panel Aloha Tom you saw a moonbow, something that I have seen a few times and I even have a photo of one on the gallery page. http://gallery.utahastronomy.com/main.php?g2_itemId=5857 <http://gallery.utahastronomy.com/main.php?g2_itemId=5857> You did get an unexpected surprise and are among a small group that has seen this night time vision.
