Travel photo of the day: Rainbow over Trunk Bay

Rainbow over Trunk Bay, St. John, U.S. Virgin Islands

Jason Wilson and his fiancée were driving to Cinnamon Bay in the U.S. Virgin Islands when they spotted this beautiful rainbow over Trunk Bay in November 2011. 

The couple, visiting from Hickory, N.C., had just purchased wedding rings on St. John and decided to rent a car and "explore as much of the island as possible," Wilson told TODAY.com.

"It was about an hour before sunset, so the sun was getting low on the horizon," Wilson said. "To the north, it was raining over the water just beyond the bay. The combination of the two created the rainbow ... We stayed until it disappeared about five minutes later.

"Once it disappeared, we continued on to Cinnamon Bay where we saw another rainbow, but it was not as full or bright as the one at Trunk Bay."
