No rain, but a DANDY rainbow Photo

Photographer’s Note

Yesterday evening I stepped outside bemoaning the fact it has clouded up again and become overcast. It's been that way all week. We didn't have any rain around us I had noticed, just clouds. But there was a MAD nice rainbow in the sky. I took a bunch of shots of it and this is one of the better ones. Hope you enjoy it.

Hi Shelly,

My, that is a dandy rainbow. I only got the rain this morning - including the lightning, thunder and hail. Oh and did I mention the 75 pound Labrador Retriever sitting on my wife's lap shaking like a leaf?

Anyway, I like the POV, great use of the vertical format, too!

Stay dry!

Hi, Shelly,
Fine composition! It reminds me the old Scorpions song; I see the rainbow in the sky, so many colours in the light! TFS!

Hi Shelly,
I never seem to have my camera handy when a rainbow suddenly pops up but I see that they come looking for you rather than the other way round :-) Its a lovely capture and the light is great. Your neighbour will have to up his security if thats where the pot of gold is hidden :-) Great to see you again after such a long time.
Regards, David

Hi Shelly,
Dandy indeed with the tri-colors getting a nice compliment from the blue in the clearing sky.
Love how the rainbow looks like it is coming right from the roof of this house.
Regards, Tom
P.S. I was in the Brunswick Maine, area was that where you were stationed in the nav? down near Bailey's Island?
