Wow! I’m jealous, Paula. All we’ve sported here for the last few days are dreary grey skies!…and today, lots and lots of rain!
Are these shots taken from Swanter Park?, Ropes Park? Palmetto Park?…I think they are too close a proximity to have been from Cole, but perhaps my memory is failing?
Beautiful images, thanks for sharing (it gives me hope here!)
Deb: I think it was at Palmetto Park, which is closest to the house. I had cycled there to see if I could get pics of the red tide but instead there was this astounding rainbow! Several people stopped in to take a gander and some pics. Of course, I played with the photo some (upped the saturation), but it’s not that far off. The sun was hitting the grass there to make it look like golden fire. And today, finally, the humiditiy is low and it’s dry and cool. Perfect weather. Sorry. : P I’ll be complaining myself soon enough.

I well remember how the sun used to set the dry grasses of the fall and winter afire…or, at least, gave off that appearance. What a lovely photo, so intense!
The red tide strikes again?, huh…
After over 24 hrs. of nonstop pounding rain, we are left with a cool, humid, very grey day. Sadly, many of the beautiful fall foliage was pounded down with the driving rains…very short lived!
Glad you are having comfortable weather there in CC.
Paula
really intense rainbows! So I guess the pot of gold is underwater, eh?
Doug: Heh! The waters are shallow. I guess I should have tried for it. : )
A double rainbow no less. Great pics.
