Full Rainbow in front of a Thunderstorm (+Shelf Cloud) Storm Andrea

A very bright and complete rainbow formed right in front of an approaching thunderstorm. On the right side of it you can also see a shelf cloud.
Unfortunately, the rainbow can't be seen in it's entire glory. You can't see all the colors, because a digital camera has 3 color chips. Red, green and blue. It uses these three chips to combine the colors, however a rainbow is pure sunlight reflected by rain droplets. The camera is unable to seperate all the colors, and only shows the red, green and blue piece of the rainbow. However, there's also a small piece of yellow in it.
