The Upside of Rain
Tuesday, June 28, 2011 at 11:56 PM 
Well all the recent rain had to be good for something! Captured this at the weekend and thought you might like to share it.
Joss and I were walking back down the side of the reservoir with no idea of what was unfolding behind us. Turned the corner and casually glanced over my shoulder and….WOW! I only had my iPhone with me so I made a grab for it before the rainbow faded. It was still raining at this point and blowing an absolute gale. I tried to steady the phone on the dam wall but to no avail. The wind was blowing my hands every which way.
But I was still able to bring you a bit of the glory. It really was the most spectacular rainbow I’ve seen in a long time. A complete arc and positioned beautifully across the water.
Thank goodness (and my husband) for my (not so) humble iPhone!

Wowzers! That's breathtaking!
Fantastic shot and you could so easily have been unaware of it. Just goes to show that sometimes you need to stop and take time to see what's going on around you.
Fabulous snap Helen. What a good job you looked back.
Wauw what a wonderful picture Helen, and you made the very best of it, like beauty in life that often present itself in the moments where we least expect it! Love the spirit of "snapping it with the best thing at hand" Hugs.
