If Only I Had a Better Camera

Ever since I can remember I've been enamored with the sky - from its vast blueness accompanied by minimal clouds to the sunrises and sunsets and from storm clouds to starry night skies.  If I had a better camera, I would have been able to capture the beautiful rainbow amongst the storm clouds last night.  But since I don't, I hope you can engage your imagination a bit to still enjoy the photo.

And, speaking of rainbows, here's another shot I captured back in February when the temps were frigid.  Winter rainbows are a beautiful sight, also.

Look closely to see it vertically standing in the sky.

Now, any suggestions for a good camera that won't set me back and entire month's salary?!
