I spent all day yesterday painting outside on the latest module of my Aberystwyth Uni course. It rained and rained and rained..... so most of my thumbnails were given the name tag ' Poor Visibility!' It rained heavily through the evening at home too but when I went out to make a cuppa at about 9.00pm I saw this amazing rainbow and forgave it everything. It was luminous and I just wanted to grab the camera and run outside to grab a memory of it. As it was raining cats and dogs and I'd already had a soaking I had to accept I could only photograph it through glass. It was even better when I noticed there was a reflection of the rainbow in the background and a quick run to the front of the house let me see the other end of it. Just like children we spent ages at the kitchen window watching it until it disappeared. I've seen many rainbows - well, this is Wales - but none, ever, as glorious as this one. I love Mother Nature.

Stunning! We've had some dramatic ones in our bit of Gloucestershire too. The evening sun seems to have helped them glow.
Glorious rainbows, Lesley; thank you for sharing them!

I'm glad I'm not the only one that gets excited at the sight of rainbows :)
Beautiful photos, well done!
Gorgeous! I saw a double one this week too and was as excited as ever.
Put simply - I love rainbows. They make me smile inside and out and I feel child-like with wonder whenever I see one. Thanks for sharing!
Rainbows never cease to capture our imaginations do they?
