A Whirl of Wind and Rain

V O I L À
The Making of a Rainbow!
I left work a little late today.
It was gusty and I could see virga and rain in the distance.
Across the horizon, the skies were blue.
By the time I left the parking lot, the rain was upon me!
Then, the sun came out.
I had to stop in the nearest driveway to take these photos!My camera was still in my purse from a retirement party
I attended last night.
Lucky!
As I got close to home, I passed this open field
and saw the storm front quickly blowing away over the horizon.
The very last of the R A I N B O W was falling to Earth.♥
Enjoy the promise of all His blessings

ReplyDeleteIm back in town and it's almost weekend again. The Fall holiday went by too fast. I believe you will enjoy your Fall holiday soon? Or is that not common in the US? Anyway, have a most wonderful weekend, sweet Maria. It's chilly in the Netherlands, I must keep the fire burning and get out my comfy soft shoes. xxxx
I just love rainbows.

ReplyDeleteI saw one that fainted too soon earlier this week, so thanks for sharing this one.
It's evening and the moon is so bright and full . I'm sitting on my couch with lots of little candles all around . I'm so glad my internet is working . In a few months I am so used to travel throuhg the blogs . I realy missed that last week.
ReplyDeleteYou and your camera ! Magical !
Wish you and your loving family a very happy weekend
I do not like storms, but certainly enjoy the beauty that can follow. Never leave home without my little digital. Glad you had yours as these are awesome sky sights. Thank you for your visit and becoming a follower. I do appreciate it very much.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful! We normally see several rainbows every summer, but this year there were hardly any.
ReplyDeleteSo very, very beautiful!
ReplyDeleteFor quite a while I carried my cameras with me almost everywhere I went but after starting to read Anita's blog over at
ReplyDeletewww.didyoubringyourcamera.blogspot.com
I carry them with me at ALL times!
I am so glad you were LUCKY and got the pictures--they are great!
And I am hoping that the retirement party went well also.
When I retired I had only been at my last school for 5 years so I really wasn't expecting a big "todo" but they gave me one of the nicest retirement parties anyone could ever have. That makes a person feel so good and just adds a stamp of validation to all the years of service they have rendered.
I know your retiree surely appreciated all your efforts. God bless you dear Maria.
Love,
Dianne
Nice, you caught a double! Nice to see the skies & season change.
ReplyDeleteOh my friend...this is so lovely today. God is good.
ReplyDeleteI am stuck in a chair today...I hurt my back this afternoon and am sooooo trying to get it better for monday. Ice..heat...ice! At least I can sit in front of the computer somewhat comfortable...and catching up with my favourite bloggers always makes me happy..thank you!
Today was going to be my baking day...sooooo hope I can make those macaroons tomorrow!!!
Love and hugs.
xoxo
It is so wonderful when we can catch these moments...not only in our camera's but in our hearts. The beauty of God's creations shines everywhere for mankind to see.
ReplyDeleteThat's what makes your drive worthwhile.
