Today's Rainbow
Went for a walkabout today to test some b&w settings. Typical English weather. It starts drizzling as soon as I stepped out the door. No worries. Got my waterproof and wellies on. I wandered out by the pub, then around where the post office is, then down a narrow muddy lane with tall hedge rows 'cause I thought it might be a good place for some b&w work in the misty yuck. Then it starts really raining! Great. I figure I'm going to find out what a Canon 5D can take.
So it lets up a bit and I decide to shoot through a break in the hedge just because. Shot a b&w, then looked up to see a fantastic rainbow that appeared to emanate from a line of trees. The one tree was just lit up. Well, here are 3 shots. The first in b&w before I realized there was a rainbow there (you can just make it out). The next two are in full bloom. Another great rainbow, and there I was with a 50mm lens AGAIN and no where to back up enough to catch it all. Oh, then it hailed on me before I got home. Was right by the pub then. Shoulda gone in ![]() |

Thanks Peter! Did the same here last night, and has damn near every night for a week, I think. The wind gets to blowing so hard it seems it'll blow the kitchen windows right out

Very nice, Bruce. Let's face it, with rainbows, color shots are usually better than BW.
