Rainbows are always something you should stop and shoot. You may only get a few seconds, but they are always fun to stop and capture. This particular rainbow developed during the storms over the mountains. Autumn storms here in the Blue Ridge mountains are always fun to see, I didn’t get the lightning I was hoping for, but rainbows in their own way are just as fantastic. I popped out of my car hastily, being rained on, and composed a rough image. I don’t often, as a landscape photographer do a lot of hand holding, but I didn’t want to setup the full tripod for a shot that would only take a few moments. Of course those few moments of standing in the autumn rain can be refreshing, also frigid once you’re in the high peaks…. Worth it.

I saw one the other evening with a cloud in front of it. I'd never seen that happen before. There was a low cloud deck, and the setting sun was illuminating a rain shower coming from the higher level of clouds, and thus, the lower clouds appeared to be in front of the rainbow.
We live on a hilltop, so we get treated to a lot of rainbows. :)
