Rainbows are pretty common here in Hawaii and there are many different types of rainbows.

One of the rare views you will get to see of a rainbow, is from above the actual rainbow.

I remember the last time I went skydiving with SkyDive Hawaii, I got to see a rainbow from the sky looking down on it and I thought it was the coolest looking thing.

Unfortunately, I didn't have a camera at the time I jumped and there were no pictures available of the rainbow I did see. So I asked the folks at SkyDive Hawaii to send me a few pictures that they have been taking of the rainbows from above. The pictures in this post are just a few of them.

All of these pictures were taken by either Frank T.K. Hinshaw or Sascha Schindler over the Dillingham Airfield Drop Zone on Oahu.

Here is a quick video T.K. Hinshaw put together of recent jumps he has done and there are some pretty cool rainbow shots in it as well:
