Rainy Days do have Rewards - Rainbow at the End of the Day

In Hernando Beach, Florida, we were blessed with some liquid sunshine today... some nice rain showers came down on us throughout the day, not too hard but enough to water lawns and plants the natural way.

As it happens so many times, at then end of the day, the sun came out just in time to set. But sometimes it is worth to take a look into a different direction. Turning away, this was the view that developed opposite the sunset!

With some rain drops still falling out of the sky, the waning sunlight rewarded us with this stunning rainbow over Hernando Beach framing the massive cloud turned pink below! What a beauty, don't you agree?

Silvia, it is a beautiful and quite unusual rainbow, because of the pinkish color due to partial sun eclipse?

Endre, thanks, this was amazing, I didn't do anything to the photo to change the colors..

Kwee, the sun was going down and hit the clouds just right... I've never seen this before.

David, thanks for stopping in and I'm glad you enjoyed it!

Karen, I'm sure it is! If nothing else, it makes us smile and appreciate the little things life throws our way!

That's a cool picture, Silvia! If it rains hard in late afternoon, and then breaks with the sun coming out, often you will see wonderful rainbows. I worked at a place in the Sierra Nevada foothills, which provided a special vantage point for such events. We knew the hours between 4:00 pm and 5:00 pm, could be magical!
