Twin Rainbows

Uploaded: June 03, 2007

Description

Taken last June, I was rushing home to beat the predicted hailstorm & saw this as I crossed the bridge. I had to pull up & take a picture but had to move on quickly as the rain was just starting. Lens aperture F/3.2, exposure time 1/203sec, ISO 125 taken at 4:30pm.

Definitely worth stopping for Chris. That's the trouble with rainbows - they tend to be associated with wetness :-) Nice double rainbow here too. #4392513

Double rainbow? Maybe the only in the world.
I had never seen anything equal.
Excellent the moment. Good picture.
It was worth the effort of to stop the car and to do the picture, even with the rain coming.
Congratulations!
