As soon as I saw the subject line I thought of Julie Andrews (and that's not something I'm comfortable owning up to). But obviously, you thought the same thing. Anyway - great light in the colour images and not too orange by any means. Not sure about the B/W one. It loses a bit of detail

Nope. I looked at all the images of sun dogs, and it wasn't such a phenomenon. These were stretched out, kind of ropy alto-cumulous clouds, lying side by side, until stretched by upper level winds. They looked like long strings of homemade sausages run over by a roller, and then stretched out

Thanks to all who replied, I don't have a polarising filter just yet and the widest lens I have is a 28mm. I shoot negatives most of the time. The rainbows I've seen here appear at any time so I will have a couple of chances to get it right. Will post if they successful. Thanks Feroze

rainbows, exposure times, film etc I can't remember if you are supposed to over expose or underexpose to get better saturation in rainbows, it's one of the two. This is why bracketing was invented. Technical bits about rainbows Rainbows are formed at an angle of 42 degrees at your view

Hi Leon, I know that is the norm with rainbows, but I had one at high noon once. It was a very flat bow. Just happen to snap a pic of it. I also had one that didn`t reach the ground because it was very early in the morning, it was a slight double. Steve Larson Redondo Beach, California

Steve, That was probably not a rainbow as such but a circumzenithal arc or similar. There are lots of atmospheric phenomena that look like rainbows which aren't. If you get enough altitude and are lucky enough early in the morning (or late in the evening) you can get close to a full circle
