It is Rainbow Posting time, thanks to Alan.Post your Rainbow

You are just making those up now Madeleine. Why is it alway Kerry that has the best rainbows, storms and sunsets??
The envy will kill me one day.
Zoltan ( ; it’s timing. thank you for the flowers. i was shaking for excitment….may god bless the walker and the dog ( ;
Do Cokin still make the rainbow filter? We rarely seem to get these spectacular visions around Wexford. I think you must have a monopoly on them.

Hi david, i just checked out cokin rainbow filters….it looks a bit rediculous :D
I am daily in the irish jungle…so more chances to catch a rainbow i guess. Like this one….a very gentle one.
Markst33: love the rainbow smurf family
Eh, . . . . I was being tongue in cheek. I was inferring that your collection of rainbow pictures was so prolific that you must be adding them with a filter. I think I was being too subtle :D :D
Correction:-
ARE YOU USING A COKIN FILTER ON ALL THESE PHOTOS?? :DOnly joking!!! (But I thought I better say that just in case!) I just need to get out more,
David
Well subtil jokes in english are my speciality… i miss them all and i create them without awarness.
My first year in ireland, i went to the butcher in town (first and last time ever) and asked for chicken tits with a serious innocent face.
Well i don’t have to describe what happend next. :roll: ,,,and i became a vegetarien ( ;
But seriously… Who ever would consider to use these funny rainbow filters. Kerry is the rainbow land….when you focus our attention!

Not a great idea, I’d say you were reminded of that for a long time. I was caught on something similar, when I was a student, one time in Waterford in a butcher’s. I asked for a few chicken pieces and the butcher asked from the end of the counter did I want a leg or a breast. Out good and loud over the noise of the crowd I said “I’m a breast man myself”. The silence was stunning and then I realised what I said. :D It happens us all.

Here’s two from some time ago, just to prove we do get them now and again on the east coast . . . . . and I didn’t use a Cokin filter.
Here’s question for those more knowledgeable than myself. Looking at the second photographs, the sky is lighter to the right of the rainbow. Why? NOTE: – If the answer is too technical then try not to confuse me with laws of physics, etc. Think of ‘Ladybird Book’.
I can’t remember exactly, nor can I remember whose dark space there is somewhere around rainbows — and my reference book
is in the other country…but if you want detailled explanations of this and lots of other things — but above Ladybird level — look atThis is the classic work, if a bit outdated in some aspects.
Edit: It’s Alexander’s dark band. I also found this thread on dpreview, which explains the light colour

thanks david for adding, rc53…interesting link. It’s all about the weather for a landscape photographer.
Yeh, thanks Robert! The book looks excellent, so much so that I have just ordered it. The Amazon.co.uk price was a bit excessive, even second hand, but it was on the US site for $29 second-hand so I’ve ordered that to be delivered to my brother in New York. Now to tell my wife!
The US site gave far better info on the book and it looks fascinating, cheers for that,David
EDIT: I’ll let you know when I get it and what it’s like. It could take a while as my bro wouldn’t be the quickest at forwarding it on. One time I was waiting for a book on Second Home Tourism Studies for my thesis and it didn’t arrive until after I graduated. Maybe this time!
a stormy sunrise with soft rainbow….the sky was breathtaking at this morning.
