Rainbows

This morning’s rainbow…and “yes,” that is a slip and slide going down that hill. 🌈

A long slip-and-slide is set up on a grassy lawn, with a rainbow visible in the cloudy sky above. The landscape is tinted oranges and yellows by the sun rising through raing clouds which fill the sky.

This morning’s rainbow. There was a double rainbow, but the second one disappeared before I found my camera. 🌈

A rainbow arcs over a lush landscape with grass, plants, and a partially cloudy sky. In the foreground is a concrete driveway and the shadow of a building drifts across the driveway and lawn.

The rainbows seem to be making a slow return. This morning one started to appear but then thought better of it. Yesterday morning we were blessed with this rainbow 🌈

A vibrant rainbow arches over a lush landscape with tropical plants and a neatly manicured lawn. In the foreground is a concrete driveway.

The first morning rainbow since my return. A little morning shower followed by sprinkling of sunshine did the trick. 🌈

A variety of lush green plants, including succulents and palm-like trees, are set against a partially cloudy sky and distant green hills. Rising up out of the hill is the beginning of a rainbow.

No sooner have I spoken than I spied a very faint rainbow this morning. Very faint indeed, but I’m pretty sure that is what is hanging there in the sky. Is this a stretch? I don’t think so. I’ll take it.

A lush garden with various green plants and bushes sits under a partly cloudy sky. A very very faint rainbow can just be seen above the bushes.

I’m beginning to wonder what has happened to the rainbows since I returned to Maui? I haven’t seen one, and this morning it is raining. The ingredients are there. Perhaps they are taking a summer vacation?

A rainbow, or should I say a double rainbow that showed itself while I was in Britain. My wife sent me the photograph, so photo credit to her. 🌈

This morning there were four rainbows over the space of a couple of hours. One was too big to capture in one photo. Because of the number and size, I have made two collages of this morning’s rainbows 🌈

A rainbow spotted while out walking this evening 🌈

Looking across a field of rough long grass, bushes and trees. A part rainbow is visible between a tree and the ground. Large clouds hang over head.

Looking across a field to a rainbow rising up out of the ocean. Big cloud in the sky.

This evening’s double rainbow 🌈

Changing it up a bit. This morning’s in house rainbow 🌈

Refracted sun light causing a spectrum of light, a rainbow, to be displayed on the wall. In front of it is a metal mesh shelf and some poles.

I’ve just added to new page to my website, Rainbows.

Given that I post so many photos of rainbows on this site, I decided to collect them all together using Micro.blog’s Photo Collections feature. As of today there are 89 photographs of rainbows here. The page will update as I add more…as I’m sure that I will!

We were blessed with three rainbows this morning (or maybe they were manifestations of the same one?), shown below in the order in which they appeared. 🌈

Tall palm trees and lush greenery stretch across a landscaped area under a partly cloudy blue sky. A rainbow appears between two of the trees.

While I was out of action this last week because of a migraine, a few rainbows appeared in the sky which I have not posted here. When my health and tolerance of light due to the migraine allowed me outside, I grabbed shots of some of those rainbows - one (maybe two?) a double. I’m sharing them here. 🌈

These two photos capture either end of this morning’s rainbow, which although the ends were visible, there was no join in the middle. 🌈

This evening’s rainbow…just. I caught it just as it faded into the sky behind it. 🌈
