The Cat Ranch faces west. We can see the weather rolling in over the horizon and beautiful sunsets. The back of the house faces east and is at the bottom of a hill. We don't see the sunrise until it's been up for several hours.
Because of this, we miss the evening rainbows that often appear after showers and thunderstorms. late in the afternoon. We know they are there, but the hill and the trees prevent us from seeing the colors.
This morning we were treated to an unusual occurrence. A rainbow in the western sky. A double rainbow in the western sky!
It was cloudy (cloudier than it appeared in that photo above) and rainy. But the sun was coming up, we just couldn't see the sun because of the hill in the east.
My camera made the sky in the first photo "brighter" than it actually was. I had to adjust my camera to capture the beauty of the dark clouds and bright rainbow. It was a complete arc.
And then it was gone. 5 minutes later and we would have missed the show.
