We walked Darcy the other evening when the sun was behind some clouds. Just as we got home, the sun broke through and looked intriguingly bleary.
As the sun set, it started lighting up the clouds above it.
Some rain began to fall, and Don called me out to the porch to see the results: A stunning rainbow in a full arc. (It was actually a double rainbow, but the second rainbow isn't really visible in the photograph.)
The colors, especially at the ends, were brilliant.
The last shafts of sunlight also lit up some clouds overhead, which lent an orange-y glow to the entire landscape.
A couple of evenings later, long after we had returned from our evening dog walk, I glanced out the window and saw this surprising development.
A few minutes later, it got even more dramatic.
Sunsets and rainbows.
Praise God for His beautiful gifts! May we always be reminded He is looking down on us. Let us be gracious to each other with the the love and grace He puts into our hearts!

ReplyDeleteMa-Nature sure puts on a beautiful show at times, doesn’t she?
Here in da South-West, we have a lot of absolutely beautiful Sunset. Add a small set of Thunder-Boomer and the Rainbows show up in droves. Plus, the under light from the Sun is amazing with the colors it lights up the clouds with.
Here’s a question for ya all, has anyone ever seen a “Triple” Rainbow. Yes, they happen on occasion, one in a million, quite the sight to behold. Or how about a full circle Rainbow? Again, yes they do happen.
For those that have seen Double’s, what did you notice between the two Rainbows? Look hard at the color arrangement, they are always exactly opposite in the sequence of colors.
I’ll go back and reiterate, “Smell the Roses along the way”.
Thank you for posting the photos.
Beautiful photos...thanks.
