Went for a walk last night and was taking a few picutres of the sun setting. When I got back it started to rain lightly, at the same time I was looking out the back and noticed a lovely red bow...
Here are the shots I got...  Grin







This was the sunset...


Hope you like  Grin

I like it alot Steven  Smiley. Very nice photography of my favourite kind of bow.  Even the secondary looks redder than usual. Great stuff.

Nice images, Steven.  Smiley I like the way they are going right to the ground.

Had you ever a thought about the frequency of rainbow occurences?  Wink

That's really good Steven - I like the sunset bow as it meets the ground at a right angle!

Paul in the Lake District.
