Rainbow In The Morning


 
BetterPhoto.com Photo Contest Finalist   Rainbow In The Morning
Rainbow In The Morning
Shepherd’s Warning.
It was just after 6.30 AM when I came across this phenomenon at the edge of the Fairbairn Pine Plantation near Canberra. The old adage is pretty true; it rained nonstop for two days after we saw this early morning rainbow.
Captured at 1/80th f11.0 and ISO-200.
