Wicked: We had a big thunder/rain/wind storm just pass through here. At first it looked like we'd be between two storms, but they joined. Then it looked as if it would be a narrow band and pass by quickly, but it grew and grew. Some of the winds were clocked at 74+ mph. Then, as if that wasn't enough for the evening, the active lightning-producing storm south of us pushed it's edge right over us.
Beautiful: When things finally started to settle down at 8:30 P.M., there was still some sun off to the west, creating this...
...a double, complete rainbow. I wish I had a wide-angle lens. I couldn't capture all of it. The sky looks bizarre, but that was the real color at the time. We, like many of our neighbors were on our deck and front lawn, just staring at this sight.
Both arcs spread across the horizon from ground to ground. (One of the pleasures of living in the Great Plains. Massive vistas.)
Just had to share this awe inspiring moment.
Wow! Very pretty.
ReplyDeleteIt was quite a sight. Everyone was talking about it today in our knitting group.
ReplyDeleteI remember seeing a full double rainbow and thinking how lucky I was and how good it made me feel. In total awe wih the universe and her creations. I didn't have a camera at the time, thanks for bringing back the memory and for sharing yours.
