Glory and greatness
I've never seen a rainbow like this before. I was out doing a senior portrait session this morning and we were waiting out a rain shower. I was sitting under the tree and saw the faint impression of the larger rainbow, but from where I was sitting, I couldn't see the second rainbow closer to the horizon. As the rain let up, I decided to go get a shot of the larger rainbow. Imagine my surprise when I saw the vivid second rainbow underneath. Life lesson - sometimes greatness isn't always apparent. You have to get up and go see what's really there.

That is absolutely stunning.
ReplyDeleteI think that the most important thing in photography isn't the equipment - it's the eye of the photographer. You have to be both in the moment, and prepared to seize the moment.
You are blessed with a great eye, extraordinary surroundings -- and no small margin of just plain good luck. Nice job!
What a great story! I had the exact feeling when my mother died and there was a rainbow, now I run out to see if I can see one.
