Rainbows Skies on the RCP&E

After shooting the RCP&E power in pouring rain in New Ulm, I saw that the storm was coming to an end just west of there. Some quick calculations with how fast the storm was moving, and trains speed, I figured I *might* get sunlight again in Sleepy Eye. As I pulled up to the grade crossing, the sun started to peek through the clouds, and lit up the entire area. The rain was still lingering, which created the rainbow in a PERFECT spot. Seconds later, the power came around the corner, and what you see was the end result.

 

I feel this is one of those once in a lifetime shots...everything came together perfectly, and right in the nick of time.
