Default Rainbow

Hello,

A stroke of luck today when I was out taking shots of waterfalls up the back of Loch Lomond. The waterfalls turned out OK I hope but when it started to rain I had to head back to the car, where I spotted this...



This is 2 shots stitched.



Thanks for looking!

Nice job stiching them together- I see a complete rainbow and secondary diffraction- looks like a complete second one. It's not easy to get a clear spot to see complete rainbows. Thanks for sharing!
