Description Ardvreck Castle
Scotland

During the last days of our trip to Scotland last year, we based ourselves at Ullapool SYHA. After a day shooting around the Lochinver area (Old man of Stoer), we had planned to shoot sunset on Loch Assynt with Ardvreck Castle being the primary interest. As it turned out, the late afternoon rain turned into a golden sunset resulting in this amazing rainbow of which I have posted one previous image. ( I ended up snapping quite a few from this spot due to the duration and intensity of the rainbow). This one suffers from jpeg compression more so that the others for some reason but I like its composition more than the dead central one I think.

Magnificent shot, hon!! You have quite a gift 4 capturing that fine quality with the camera of Mother Nature's beauty and one of my favorite sights: GOD's promise never to flood Earth again. Love the castle with its golden hue. Incredible. Thank you so much for sharing this with us. hugs! Susan xox

If there's two rainbows, does the second one have a bigger pot of gold? Or are the both just pots of Lucky Charms?
