  1. Some pics of the sunset while I was out looking for damage caused by the earthquake.I was only 5 miles from the epicentre so the shaking was very strong.I was up looking at my watch when I could here a loud rumble and shaking sound.Then the ground just started to move up and down. I could here all my books on the shelf come falling down and plates downstairs rattling. Thank god it was over quickley. The only damage in my house is some cracks on the walls.Along the side of our local stream you can see where the land has slipped down only by a foot along with small areas of the path cracked and broken down.

    Anyway I quite enjoyed the event but my mum was very shaken.

    If you look carefully, there's an upside down rainbow here (What's the term for this ??). Sorry about the quality, it's on my phone.

    I saw one of these on the 13th July 2004. It was seen widely across Lincolnshire ,Yorkshire and Nottinghamshire.

    Its called a Circumzenithal arc and is quite rare. It comes from refraction through ice crystals as opposed to water droplets. Thats why its seen higher in the sky.More info here:
