Wow, that's something I would expect to see in a painting.

Maybe it's a photograph of a painting? I have no background info at all... I just liked it.

I once saw a herd of horses running through a meadow of tall grass which had been heavily covered in dew. At the fore were two horses who were nipping at each other playfully, almost lustily as they ran. As the herd galloped through the soggy grass, a cloud of droplets was thrown up around them, which caught the low angle beams of the rising sun that were cutting through the trees on a ridge above the meadow, causing the spray to refract the light and surround the horses with a rainbow-hued glow as they ran.

It was one of the most beautiful things I've ever seen in person, another one of those priceless, irrepeatable moments of which there are so few in life.

This picture reminds me of that moment just a little.
