Vince belongs to several online photo groups and from time to time they have ‘challenges’ or even competitions. Today’s challenge was anything to do with water.
So we drove down our paddock, switched on the sprinklers and Vince was able to create his own rainbow effect in the streams of water. Isn’t it pretty? This will be my last post till we get back from the Fairbridge Music Festival sometime on Monday. I hope the intervening days go well for you.

The man-made rainbow is beautiful.
.The way you make the rainbow is very useful. Thanks for your sharing.

@prakashj256 @migen1037 I think if you stand between the sun and water sprinkling like this or even from a hose you will see a rainbow form. You have to have the light (or sun) coming from behind you.

@allknowing Several have commented that they've made rainbows with their hoses in the garden.

@JudyEv Oh not too bad I hope. A friend of mine went to Glastonbury festival which is popular here but she had her money stolen and had to come back early,

@sprite1950 That is such a shame. It would completely spoil it for her.

I've tried several times making rainbows too when I was watering our garden in the afternoon :)

@sunrisefan It can be hard to locate a particular photo sometimes. I have the same trouble.

Nicely done! Difficult to capture, too. Have fun at the festival! :-)

@FayeHazel This is our house. You can see Herc's 'sheep station' in the middle distance.

Thanks. Rainbows are always special. I love seeing them sometimes on the ground in oily water.

@porwest We had a lot of thunder and lightning and a few quite strong wind gusts. One gust got under the awning of the caravan, broke a fitting on one of the legs and the whole roof and other leg went over the top of the caravan. Luckily it didn't damage the van but the awning will need to be replaced. It is insured but there is still an excess to pay and we'll lose our no-claim bonus. Could be worse.

Great shot! I've seen a few of those myself but don't know if I could capture one!

@JudyEv I do enjoy them and don't see that many- so it's a real treat!

Very clever! The Hippie generation would be rain-bowled over by that photo
