Rainbow!

These were all taken of the same rainbow. Unfortunately, I wasn't able to find my polarizing lens (stupid move!) until the rainbow was nearly gone, so I didn't get to experiment with that nearly as much as I would have liked. These are all with just a regular UV filter that is always on my camera.

The left part of the rainbow. It really stands out against the dark clouds.

I thought about cropping this, but then decided to show it with all it's warts! Those warts are... two tips from my umbrella, creeping in to the top of the frame. I had my umbrella out to protect the lens from getting spotty, but as I didn't have a tripod, sometimes it was hard to balance everything at once - and this was the result. Aside from that, I LOVE this picture. The rainbow enters and exits the image at pretty much the same height on each side. Yay!

And for balance, here is the right side of the rainbow.

All were taken with a bit of zoom to cut out roof tops and so on. There was in fact a bit of a double rainbow at one point, but the second one was so faint, I don't know if I caught it at all. It was still beautiful to see!
