Skywatch Friday - what a gift!

Getting soaked by the open door, I decided I'd best close it. There, on the other side of the lake, a rainbow. Grabbing my camera, I ran out into the rain. The video is noisy with wind and rain.




skywatchThe sunset was striking, too! What a treat.

  7. Nice shots Jen.....rainbows are truly a blessing.....I've seen them even in the winter....they don't do a full circle for the ice crystal don't go that far up in the atmosphere I guess!!!!!

  10. I haven't seen a rainbow yet this summer! But with the heat and humidity, I have not had the curtains open, either...

  13. What glorious skies. Love the rainbow! I'd probably have run out as well. I've stayed in Minden and Haliburton but not the Muskokas - beautiful spot to love in!
