Somewhere over the rainbow


Taken at sunset in my street after rain.

It's also a reminder that The 3-week long Gay and Lesbian Mardi Gras in Sydney finishes on Saturday night (at sunset) with the spectacular parade, watched each year by tens of thousands of spectactors. Have a look at skies all over the world.

    Looks like interesting lighting, plus a good flash of the bulb. Very well done.

    That's lovely. Nothing like a rainbow to make you feel better.

    Hope the pot of old is there. I's a sucker for purple but the rainbow is double whammy.

    Beautiful shot! I love rainbows. And I love that they represent the GLBT community! How did you make the rainbow link?

    Maya - I just used the colour palette thingy in Blogger - highlight a few letters at a time and change them.

    Spectacular. The fronds hanging down make it particularly impressive somehow.

    What an exceptional Skywatch post! Well done Sally!

    And then thanks for the song today in Avignon - it's my birthday today and the joy in the song suits me perfectly. Cheers!

    Thank you for all those lovely comments yesterday. It is inevitable that with at least 4 of us in the one city, that some duplication will occur.

    The overhang here - is it a callistemon?

    I am going to the start of the parade this evening - mainly to get photos for my Stranger project. I expect to discover quite a few strangers there. Being shorter than short, the parade itself passes over my head ...

    Wow,I wonder why I missed this SWF post, this is the most wonderful I've ever seen. I'd love to see rainbows, but in truth I've never seen real ones yet. How lucky of you. :)
