Sky Watching on Friday - Somewhere over the Rainbow...!

Coming back from town earlier, saw me caught out in an unexpected storm that even had thunder rumbling around.

Then, with the rain still falling, the sun peaked out from behind the blackest of clouds.

This was the wonderful result that's made my day... I no longer cared that I was drenched from head to toe as I scrambled to take this photograph!

It is only, my third ever successful rainbow capture & ironically, it's nearly in the same location as my first, ie looking down my road, as I arrived home.

Naturally, the Judy Garland song from 1939 film 'The Wizard of Oz' is now running through my head like crazy!

Somewhere over the rainbow

Way up high,

There's a land that I heard of

Once in a lullaby.
Somewhere over the rainbow

Skies are blue,

And the dreams that you dare to dream

Really do come true.
Someday I'll wish upon a star

And wake up where the clouds are far

Behind me.

Where troubles melt like lemon drops

Away above the chimney tops

That's where you'll find me.
Somewhere over the rainbow

Bluebirds fly.

Birds fly over the rainbow.

Why then, oh why can't I?
If happy little bluebirds fly

Beyond the rainbow

Why, oh why can't I?.

Will just have to go search out a YouTube clip!

And, if I could find that 'pot of gold' too, I'd have life aced.
