Double Rainbow Over Potrero Hill

I was doing some work on my computer when I glanced through the windows. There were some nice sunset colors in the sky. So I went outside to enjoy the show. When I turned my head eastwards, I was stunned: a huge double rainbow was up there. A quickly grabbed my camera to shoot some pictures.

This was the first time I saw such a huge double rainbow. My head was spinning: where can I go quickly to take some more images with a more pleasing foreground. Up the road is Starr King Openspace with some nice trees. Luckily when I arrived, the rainbow was still up there and the sky was even more colorful. Wow!

  1. Thanks very much for the pix. Could you tell me what time they were taken? My Dad, a brilliant artist, passed away late Wednesday afternoon. I like to think this was his last broad strokes across the sky on his way to the next world. Thanks!

  2. my problem was as i snapped more, i noticed it was nearing me instead of going farther from me. the very first few pixs were full arches, BUT as time progressed, i couldn’t get the top of the rainbow in a single shot. grrrrr you’re lucky!!! 🙂

  3. you lucky dawg, and would you believe i was almost going to take my 12-24 lens but decided against it? i took ONLY my 18-55 and it would NOT fit!!! you luck dawg!!
