The Road Home: Rainbow edition

I went out just before sunset to take trash to the dump, thinking I might get some “front light”. The road home was lit by the setting sun with dark clouds over the mountains. It began to rain…

I watched this rainbow form from a soft prism of light to a vivid full rainbow.

And then a second!

The complete dual rainbows with the misting rain formed a heavenly canopy over me. I tucked the camera under my coat and stood in the rain in sheer awe at the sensation. No cars passed. I never saw another soul.

A favorite scene

This barn sits in one of those places that begs a photo again and again – the valley floor giving way to the Continental Divide.

Nearly all this week, the mountain tops have been shrouded in clouds, mist or squalls, but today, bits of sunshine poked through the overcast lighting the field and the golden larch.
