One thing have I desired of the LORD, that will I seek after; that I may dwell in the house of the LORD all the days of my life, to behold the beauty of the LORD, and to inquire in His temple. (Psalm 27:4)
We had a very dry month of May, but a much-needed shower moved through the area on Saturday. As the sun emerged after the rain, a rainbow appeared in a low arc in the eastern sky. It seemed unusual to see a rainbow so low to the horizon.
It's difficult to see, but the bottom layer of the rainbow is a beautiful shade of purple.
Thanks to Hilary at The Smitten Image for including this post as a Post of the Week.
How pretty! I don't know if I've seen one quite like that. I hope you've been well Linda. I'm trying to work my way back in the blogosphere. Took a longer break than expected. :)

ReplyDeleteGreat capture Linda, and very unusual to see a rainbow like this.
ReplyDeleteThanks, Keith.
ReplyDeleteLinda, what an unusual flat shape of the rainbow. I can only join the others and say I've never seen it like this. It's beautiful. Did it last long?
ReplyDeletePetra - Rainbows never seem to last very long. With the least little change in the light, they're just a memory. This one was just as brief as most.
