Talking Morning Rainbow

I went outside this morning before getting ready for work for a smoke. This is what I saw when I looked up. I debated whether to finish the smoke and take a picture when I left for work but decided to put it out and get the camera then. I'm glad I did because it was gone when I left for work.

Beautiful! Glad you chose to capture the rainbow and share it with us. Must've been the same one my friend from Memphis saw this morning.

Thanks, Lori!

You did the right thing. Nice shot. I know how fleeting these things are. I've missed too many rainbow shots because of the time it took to get the camera. Good job.

Thank you Lori. It would be the same I bet too. I'm literally 2 minutes south of Memphis. I work in there.

Thank you Rusty.

Lori this a gorgeous capture. The cloud underneath the rainbow looks like a pot of gold. lol..or maybe it is just my imagination.
