    Yesterday after the mist and fog cleared, we had a double rainbow appear over the far field:

    I was hoping for two pots of gold, but alas, no gold!

    Well said Sjoerd.
    A beautiful shot of one of my favourite things that Mother Nature produces.

    Thank you both (and especially Sjoerd--you made my day, possibly my week). We don't get rainbows often, but when we do they are spectacular because of the clarity of the air.

    I found it ironic that today there was a great double rainbow in the west ...visible out the front room window. How interesting is that?!
