Sunday we had a brief shower go through and then the sun came out. I told my granddaughter to run up the road and see if there was a rainbow in the fields to the east.

She soon returned and was very excited and was motioning for me to come up and join her. This is what we saw.

Monday morning I left for a job in Northern New Jersey. Last evening after work I was out fishing when a brief shower blew through and then the sun came out. I walked over to the other side of the island to see if there was a rainbow. There was. This one lasted longer than almost any other rainbow I’ve seen, it was hanging out there for more than 30 minutes.

Two rainbows back to back, two days in a row. Maybe I’ll see another one today.


Eh...wot?

The setting sun is what made last nights rainbow disappear. But it was replaced with a pretty cool sunset.

Nice double, I always wondered why the colors are reversed on doubles.

Lugnut Thanks for distinguishing between the two of them .I get easily confused. I have never been much of a fisherman .But I do go once in a great while.. I would be a happier catching one of the rainbows you captured here than the one I was confused about in a recent post you made .Very nice pictures as usual for you

Late afternoon Thursday, we had a light shower. When it stopped, I went Groundhog hunting.
On the way, a double Rainbow appeared.

According to Wikipedia:

In a double rainbow, a second arc is seen outside the primary arc, and has the order of its colours reversed, with red on the inner side of the arc. This is caused by the light being reflected twice on the inside of the droplet before leaving it.

Gays are gay, rainbows are cool. They don't deserve the fag association the libtards have tagged them with.
