This morning’s double rainbow. 🌈️
Rainbows
With increasing regularity, I have been posting images of rainbows that I have seen. Most of these are taken in Maui, where I live, though there are a handful from elsewhere. I decided to collect all of these photographs together and show them in a single page. As of this page going live, Monday 14th May 2025, there were 89 photos of rainbows on the site.
The images start with the first rainbow posted to this website. That was on 23rd December 2018. They then work forward through the days, months and years to the most recent (as of this page going live was two days ago, 12th April 2025).

A couple of rainbows from yesterday. You have to look carefully to see the second one. It was visible through a slight tint to the sky…either that or I am just imagining them now! 🌈️
I caught this low in the sky rainbow as I left Haiku Market yesterday morning. 🌈️
The first rainbow of the New Year to welcome in 2026 this morning, a double rainbow in fact. 🌈️

A New Years Eve evening Rainbow 🌈
Boxing Day rainbows, over land and sea, and hanging there in the clouds. 🌈
A Christmas Day double rainbow 🌈🎄
I seem to be falling a day behind the last couple of days. This is yesterday morning’s rainbow. There were none this morning, so hopefully I am caught up now. 🌈️

I caught a rainbow hiding out amongst the clouds yesterday morning. 🌈

This morning’s double rainbow. 🌈
Rainbow over the hills above Honolulu this afternoon. 🌈
A rainbow, in fact a double rainbow from mid morning yesterday. 🌈️
A rainbow seen at Ho’okipa Beach Park early afternoon today. By the time that I drove away a little later a second rainbow was visible above this one, and the colours of this rainbow appeared deeper against dark grey storm clouds. 🌈
I watched this rainbow morph in shape and size this morning. 🌈
Earlier this morning I was driving to the local recycling center and could see through the trees, a rainbow arching across the sky. By the time that I had arrived and parked up, it had diminished in size but was still there. 🌈
The wet and windy weather continues and with it the rainbows. Here is this morning’s. 🌈

I watched this rainbow, these rainbows form this morning. In fact I took photos at different stages thinking, “That’s it, it’ll fade soon,” and then this double rainbow emerged. 🌈
A Collection of Words, Gathering Thoughts
Tuesday, November 11, 2025
I don’t know where this post will go? I am writing with a migraine. My head is telling me to rest, to get away from the screen. However it is raining outside, no one is around and I had a full and emotional weekend and feel that I want to just get some words out. I have ideas of what those words might cover and those ideas are all vying for my attention so I don’t think any one subject will arise front and center, and some will probably not even make an appearance here. It’s almost as though I have to get the mess out before anything else can make its presence felt.
Yesterday morning’s briefly visible rainbow. I’m sure that there were many more as the day was very wet, but I was attending an event and did not get to see them. 🌈
This morning’s rainbow. It appeared gradually this morning. At first teasing, a faint colour in the sky hinting that a rainbow was there and yet maybe it wasn’t. Slowly the colours deepened and the arc of the rainbow grew, starting on the right and steadily reaching across the sky to what you see in the photograph. 🌈️
There were a number of rainbows this morning. They all formed in pretty much the same area of sky and so instead of showing the whole gamut of rainbows that appeared, I am going with the first one that I saw as I stepped outside this morning….and I didn’t get many photos of the others anyway 😏 🌈
Changing things up a bit. A black and white photograph of a rainbow, along with the moon yesterday evening. 🌈
Yes there were rainbows today. 🌈
This one from this morning:
And this one from this afternoon:
About to pull out of the local recycling center this evening I spotted this rainbow. 🌈
This morning’s double rainbow. 🌈
Catching Up on Rainbows
Sunday, October 26, 2025
Last week’s busyness and frustration saw me not posting any rainbow photos. That does not mean that there were none, as there most certainly were. I captured a number of them and am now posting them here in order to catch up.
Juggling Pages on My Website
Saturday, October 18, 2025
I spent today making a few cosmetic changes to my website. For the most part longer posts to my blog are headed with a title. This isn’t always true. There are a couple of longer posts which are without a title, but it is true enough for that to be a guiding light for how to find a longer post here. Thinking that some visitors might prefer to go straight to longer posts, or at least have a doorway that leads directly to them, I have added a new menu item to the navigation bar, Longer Reads.
The rainbows are starting to appear with increased abundance now. One that I missed last night while we were out eating presented itself in dark vivid colours at dusk. The wetter weather of the last couple of days is definitely helping.
This double rainbow appeared this morning. 🌈
