Some pictures of a rainbow

On Tuesday i found a beautiful rainbow when I drove back home from a customer. On the second picture you can even see that it was a "Double Rainbow". I parked my car on the side of the street and tried to take some nice pictures with my smartphone since I didn't have my Camera with me. The Light situation was very dark and it was in the middle of two rain fronts. It means that it just stopped raining and the next rainshower was already on it's way. Rainbows can be observed whenever there are water drops in the air and sunlight shining from behind the observer at a low altitude angle. Because of this, rainbows are usually seen in the western sky during the morning and in the eastern sky during the early evening.

There is a saying that you can find a treassure burried at the two ends of each rainbow, but since you cannot approach it because the rainbow is wandering with you as you try to get closer you will never be able to find the end of the rainbow.

If you look close you can even see a double rainbow. Picture: Florian Glechner.

I really like the light situation with the mixture of dark and light colors. Picture: Florian Glechner.
