Getting dark, going into a Cane's, and the last light popped a rainbow in just the right place. Composited from about 8 cell camera exposures. Not bad for a low-light shot by cell phone.
 
You def have a knack for great pics Barbarian. Why do rainbows have different curvatures ? That one is very tight.
 
Well, it has to do with where the drops of water are, relative to where you are. But in fact, that's an extreme wide angle view, done by stitching about 8 cell phone shots together. So, it's a highly distorted view. To give you some idea, I was standing less than a foot from the curb at the time, almost at the sidewalk.

The knack is in developing an eye for what might be a good shot. Some people didn't even see the rainbow, walking in. After a while, everything you see is judged by how good an image it might make.
