Ok, I think you guys are going to think I'm crazy but this is really the first time I'm seeing this. Not my first time seeing a rainbow of course but a rainbow in this manner is really a first for me....
The brightest area is where the sun is and the circle around it is the rainbow which we saw. This was just right outside my house. The black line at the bottom of the photos is my house awning. It wasn't easy to get these shots as the sun was shining directly into my eyes. All in all, this phenomenon lasted about 10 minutes and it was gone.
I have yet to have time to look this up on the internet to find out exactly how this happened. Stay tuned to see if I do manage to find some info on this....

Does the link below (entitled "Why is there a rainbow around the sun or moon?") explain what you saw?
