Rainbows

Rainbows .... beautiful, beautiful rainbows. We've been going through some horrendous weather these past weeks as well with frost, torrential rain, electrical storms and hailstorms interspersed with sunshine .... but just a while ago we were rewarded with a rainbow ....













There are some pretty spooky clouds there as well.....

 

Oh, lovely, Sis! I can even see a second one in the third, fourth and sixth pics. :thumb:

 

Super. Did you find any pots of gold ?:D

 

I love rainbows and also waterfalls.
I some how get drawn to them.

 

Pleased to have shared it Sis, Dave and Lyn.

Dave, my new camera was shipped to my friend in the UK last week ... unfortunately for me he was here, now he's back there and has to on-ship it to me .... :dh: But my lovely old Kodak didn't let me down in the poor light ....

I'm like you Lyn ... love both rainbows and waterfalls but don't have too many of the latter here in the Algarve sadly but probably do further North ... so shall have to investigate ....

 

I always seem to have problems taking good pictures of rainbows.
You have done a good job.:gnthb:

Remember this? :D

 

Thank you Robert. I'm currently using my year 2000 Kodak DC 4800 Zoom Digital ... and I didn't have time to put any attachments on (with which I'm not very clever with anyway :dh.

My new camera, as and when I get it is a Fuji Finepix S1000fsD so I have a big learning curve ahead of me I imagine I will still take the Kodak with me .... better the devil you know (although I've only know him two years) ..... :hehe:

 

Oh, roders, how VERY MUCH ME .... yes, I remember it well .... thank you .... :luv:xx

 

Thanks, Marley.

It was quite difficult as I took the first two photos from in front of the house ... it's the now-deflowerd almond tree on the left from the strorms (so must change my avatar) and the smaller of the two Jacarandas on the right hit by the frost with the Mioporo in the middle.

The camera has an xxxxxxx processing period per shot although I can do a four-burst shot but that is not very useful to me. Then I had to gallop around the house in the rain and up onto deck to take the last four photos .... such is life trying to be a GC photographer ..... :hehe:

Must say though I'm pleased with the end result. :gnthb:

 

I have moved the musically-oriented posts to their own thread thereby keeping the Gallery thread open for Rainbows.

Here we are ....

Lovely Rainbows Vicky - and I would have loved to see you galloping round the house to take more pics.

Found a pic I took from the front of our house a while back. The rainbow looks very bright when the sky
is so dark - it was mid-afternoon.

Hi jj ... nice to see you back with us ....

We are going through our rain season now so I should see some more but then nada for at least 8 months .... but you guys will be coming into rainbows in the Spring so I look forward to seeing more lovely pictures.

Thanks for sharing yours.

Yes, we got a bit carried away with the music there ....off-thread, me'thinks .... :hehe:

Ooh, need more sentences here ..

This is from a couple of years ago.

Never found a pot of gold:D
