mojave rainbow

qe Lindo!
The rainbow has a twin.. ^,^
mojave rainbow by donjiva(away).
My friend and I were on a roadtrip, and we're on our way to las vegas, we decided to go through mojave dessert from joshua tree national park rather the usual highway. It was a longer road but well worth it, in the middle of nowhere suddenly there's a huge thunderstorm, and after it cleared a bit I saw the sky clear with a double rainbow.I got out from the car and I didn't care if it was raining or there's a storm, I just wanted to get this rainbow picture !!

Nikon D40X · Nikon 18-135mm · f8· iso 100 · handheld

Hi, I'm an admin for a group called Pick Your Poison Challenges, and I think you'd do really well there! We move a lot slower than the 3 photo challenge groups, but winning is tough! I have a feeling it won't be tough for you though. Join us if you'd like! We'd love to see you there!

SUPERB CAPTURE!!!

Wonder if either rainbow ended at one of the casinos in Nevada?
:)

I have a similar one (most rainbows are DOUBLE, it's just not often that you can see them).. It's a double rainbow as well, and ends at the casino In northern Ontario, Canada.
