Really beautiful.
This is not a rainbow but a so called halo [link]
It is created by light refraction by hexagonal ice crystals in the high atmosphere.

I love them since I've seen them the first time and I'm always hunting for them when I have my camera with me. This is my most impressive shot of a halo: [link]

Nice shot. I see these around us, except they are orange/yellow instead of those nicer colors.
