over the fields - rainbow in the clouds

I braved the 'leftovers' of Hurricane Bertha to walk up the fields hoping for some sunset clouds.

Instead, I spent several minutes sheltering under a tree with my camera and umbrella while it lashed down with rain, got soggy trainers and even soggier trousers, walked around the fields and saw no sunset clouds, but I saw four rainbows in quick succession.

This is one of them.
beautiful. makes me think of the wizard of oz!
