Rainbow In Winter


Canon 40-D: Canon 28-135mm EF
With the weather conditions being more like late March than early February, I was not surprised to see a rainbow after a brief shower on Wednesday evening.

That takes my breath away, Willard. What a beautiful setting for a rainbow to land on!

Wow the end of the rainbow! Any gold? This is a great picture, lucky you to see it.

That's a great shot. You can almost see where it ends and I just bet there might be something there!

Very good the photograph, the forest have beautiful colours, season, and the sky grey with a lot of nuances!

Lovely, graceful picture.

The rainbow is so clear. I can't quite describe it, but usually rainbow pictures look kinda fake, and this one looks perfectly real!

Well captured Willard..
I have yet to get a desent Rainbow, and like yours our weather seems a bit daft at the moment. So hopefully I'll get one soon.
Another landscape I'd love to walk

Have a great Weekend.
Tom Jane & Pete

Pete was in awe of you Elk video... like me he was stunned by the sound the male makes.
Peter is a good friend of a Game Keeper in the Highlands of Scotland.. they hunt Red Deer their for sport, but incoperate it with the cull. Pete was sent some pictures from a deer kill, and also a cull of Mountain Hare... both are great pictures in their own right and when we get more detales from the Game Keepr Pete will do a post on them.
