I have been without a camera for just less than two weeks after mine fell over into a pool at Robin Hood's bay ![]()
I received a replacement yesterday, so went out last night after a very busy day and 10 to cook for at tea time. My daughter was washing my car, so I walked to the beach, passing through Saltburn on the way, when it started to rain, and the first of an amazing display of rainbows began! This is from the top before I got to the beach, when I thought it would be my only chance to capture it.
It ended up being a night of amazing conditions for photography, and I was exhausted by the end of it.
We're off to Devon for a week from tomorrow, so I won't even get to process any more until I come back, though then I will hopefully have plenty more very new material ![]()

S**t I've been down on Saltburn beach for dawn two mornings this week (including this morning) and haven't even got the camera out of the bag yet. I considered going out last night too but got tied up doing my tax return

Beautiful moment you've captured here. Can't wait to see the rest of the set ![]()
Hope the exhibition is going well too? I'll try and pop in and have a look over the next week or so...

Thanks everyone. Oh, Dennis, what a downer. So typical of landscape photography. There will most definitely be other special skies though. ![]()
Still gutted! It was a stunning sunset here too but by the time I spotted what was happening it was too late to get anywhere
Fingers crossed for a repeat show tonight ![]()
No doubt when you first saw the rainbow you were desperately looking for a composition...and you have done really well here.
Have a great trip to Devon.
Derek
Ash text me to go out last night too
I was bushed after a bike ride though.
Hes gonna kill me when he sees this.
Great shot, and you do walking too, wow.
Enjoy your trip, i hope the weather gods are on your side.
Thank you all so much.
Derek, that's exactly how it was! ![]()
Steve, you lazy bones! I won't do that sort of walking again very soon, though - I wore my waterproof sandals and my feet were bleeding by the end of the evening!!
Oh dear, sorry to hear of your loss, Leigh
But what a wonderful capture here! Love it.
Hope you have a great holiday in Devon.

Leigh, we see some great images here, but this is exceptional. I do hope it receives the many accolades it deserves, and wait in anticipation of your future uploads. Glad to hear that you are equipped again and have a great family holiday.

Very special capture, the rainbow is excellent and really adds to the compo. Chaz.
Super image such lovely light and the rainbow is excellent.

Spectacular rainbow Leigh, lucky you finding this. Hope Devon is kind to you, have a great holiday.

A cracker Leigh, but I can't help but notice the rain spot right below the rainbow. Otherwise, a beautiful composition, and the light goes without saying ![]()
Thanks so much everyone. It was a double rainbow, Lee, but I couldn't fit all of the outer ring in.
Really nice shot I was on Redcar prom when this little beauty appeared.
