Had to make a very quick decision when I saw the rain clouds coming in. just caught the end of this rainbow then took a drive to the west to watch a pretty epic sunset.

This was a strategical and last minute rainbow hunt mission. In eight years you get a solid understanding of how the weather works and plan it right, you can get what you want. The thrill of the chase!

Trying my luck for another rainbow shot over Fort Grey. It's always hit and miss but all the ingredients were there it’s just pot luck if the sun breaks though in time to give a full on vibrant bow.

A far cry from the summer but this is one of the best spots on the west coast through the seasons.
Still chasing those rainbows!

Round II in what felt like the ultimate rainbow chasing day. I recon there was at least one rainbow an hour through the day but work and life commitments got their way!

It wasn’t the most vibrant and dramatic rainbow I’ve seen but it’s always satisfying to capture one.

Not quite suited to the title ‘September Rain’ but it was trying to force out a full on rainbow. As usual, I arrived as it was fading away, although the contrasting light was epic. The autumnal golden hours are beginning to kick in nicely!

The best I could do to try and get Finley into the rainbow.

Another stormy day, another rainbow hunt complete. The combo of sun, cloud and rain was perfect, it was just a case of waiting it out which luckily came sooner than I expected.

Last day of November, finishing off with a classic Guernsey scene and a stunning rainbow. I sat through three downpours to get this shot but my persistence paid off. Luckily I found a rock to shelter behind and the rain was driving in from the west so the lens stayed relatively rain free. There was also a lot of careful planning in my mind as to where to be, along with the help of some basic sun calculation apps and rain radars.

Full on rainbow appeared as I was heading home and an opportunity I couldn’t miss. I was getting hammered with rain but it was coming from behind so I didn’t have to worry about rain spots.

An opportunity was brewing so I quickly drove the 2 minutes from my house (lazy!) and got to the bridge with 1 minute to spare before it pee’d down.

My plan was to chase the thunder and lightning in the early hours but that was short lived. Instead, once the gorgeous orange glow burst over the horizon, I focused my efforts on the rain clouds heading in from behind. As an added bonus, a rainbow appeared in the mix.

After yesterdays poor attempt at capturing a rainbow, today I knew exactly where I needed to be and this one didn’t disappoint!

After an unsuccessful trip this morning, the drive home gave a little taste of a rainbow.

After watching the rain roll in over Hanois, the sun started to break through and I knew I had to move. Just around the corner the sheep presented themselves perfectly with Fort Grey and the rainbow taking centre stage in an amazing burst of colour.

There was some magical light toward sunset. It was a tough choice over which direction to face but the rainbow always wins.

Bordeaux Harbour with an incoming shower slowly creeping in. That rainbow got pretty big and stuck around for nearly half an hour.

We all see rainbows but seeing them so big as the sun rises or sets is very rare. In the 6 years I’ve been obsessing over photography, I’ve only ever seen this three times. Not the best location for it but a photo than needed to be taken.

You have to just admire how spectacular rainbows can be. Love watching the curtains of rain falling to the ground. Unofficial stats claim February 2020 was the wettest ever recorded and it still continues!
