Weather storms passing through by maggiemae

Weather storms passing through

I'm posting a bit early because tomorrow I'm playing the ukelele with the group at a Breakfast by the Oamaru Harbour! The Mayor is arriving by sea so that sounds worthy of a photograph. Mightn't have time to post this - early start!


Three good things:
1 Book club down on the eastern coast of Otago had its challenges
2. The coastal storms were coming through and I got a stark one tree photo.
3. I got out of telling them all what book I'd been reading because its a Marcia Willett book and I absolutely love them. They are all reading awful books of trial and tribulation, Africa, Mexico, Russia etc!
One very vivid and eye catching rainbow.
1. One good thing about storms are the rainbows they can produce.
Enjoy your breakfast tomorrow and I hope it does not rain on your ukelele.

@lwain I do like what you say! I'm fossicking amongst my music scores now trying to find " We sailed on the sloop John B"
November 13th, 2014  
Wow, that's an amazing rainbow!!
November 13th, 2014  
Fantastic rainbow, makes the landscape look so small.
November 13th, 2014  
Wonderful rainbow!! Tomorrow sounds like great - i would love to see you playing your ukulele with the Mayor sailing in - what fun!!

Sometimes book clubs seem to pick books that they feel we 'aught' to be reading regardless of whether we are likely to enjoy them....you stick to what you like!
Stunning rainbow & it's rightbin front of those houses.
Hope your ukulele plying went well......I'm sure it put all in happy spirits.

I can see all the colours clearly - awesome Maggiemae
November 13th, 2014  
Amazing rainbow...so vibrant and huge!
November 13th, 2014  
Glorious rainbow Maggiemae - I know "Sail on the Sloop John B" so well - believe it or not it is (or was - it's been a few years) the school song at Nelson Girls College!
November 13th, 2014  
Wow what a spectacular rainbow!
November 13th, 2014  
Beautiful
November 13th, 2014  
So broad and clear colors. When I visited NZ years ago I remember stopping to get a rainbow picture that wasn't nealy this beautiful !

November 13th, 2014  
quite the rainbow! "..hoist up the john bs' sail....."
November 13th, 2014  
Wow and WOW. Fabuslou rainbow!!
November 13th, 2014  
WOW. Spectacular. Fattest one I've ever seen.
November 13th, 2014  
Let me add my WOW! I have never seen a rainbow that broad before!
November 13th, 2014  
@skipt07 I wonder what makes them wide like this - it was only 1/2 a rainbow too!
November 13th, 2014  
beautiful rainbow, great colour and processing
November 13th, 2014  
@maggiemae - I would guess the amount of moisture in the air and the way the light was hitting it.
November 13th, 2014  
Rainbows are always a joy to see. Why can't we have a sound extension on the 365 as I'd love to hear you play the ukelele.
November 13th, 2014  
Fantastic shot.
November 13th, 2014

FAV... that's an impressive rainbow! Great shot!
November 14th, 2014  
Wow, Maggie. That's a super rainbow shot. It looks enormous. FAV
November 14th, 2014  
Awesome sight Maggie and enjoy tomorrow
November 14th, 2014  
Wow - an amazing rainbow that I had to fav as it looks so magical. And what a great experience to be having tomorrow (or later tonight for you, I guess) getting to play the Uke in those circumstances.

@taffy Thanks Taffy - when you have a number of really good photos of all different subjects which do you choose?
November 14th, 2014  
@bkbinthecity I sort of did, Mr B - wasn't happy with our presentation - not together enough!
November 14th, 2014  
@skipt07 I must google that - your description sounds logical!
November 14th, 2014  
@happypat I agree totally about Book club choices - I get annoyed but get out of the 'school' like review very tactfully and cleverly diverting the subject. The rainbow WAS in front of the houses and thats what took my interest. Pot'o'Gold??
November 14th, 2014  
Wow! What a magnificent rainbow!
November 14th, 2014  
This is a knockout roygbiv. Spectacular capture.
November 14th, 2014  
Wow, that is nice and bright
November 14th, 2014  
@maggiemae It's fun when that happens! I've sometimes devoted a week to make a series. Or used me extras albums. Or saved for an uninspiring day.
November 14th, 2014  
What a wonderfully colorful rainbow! And how exciting to be playing for the mayor. Do we get to see a video?
November 14th, 2014  
This looks like a path way to Mars.
November 14th, 2014  
Awesome shot, never seen a rainbow this wide!
