Monday evening, July 3, 2023, I’d just collected my new glasses. We were driving east on highway 741 as a brilliant rainbow graced the eastern sky. We arrived at the Strasburg Rail Road just as the colors started to fade. All around us were dramatic clouds in a stormy sky. The contrast was fierce.
I made these photos using my Lumix LX7, exposing in RW2 (RAW). I made minor adjustments in Lightroom to better balance the ground and sky.

Sometimes it helps just to be there.
Yesterday morning I arrived at North Conway early to open the station and serve as ‘Manager on Duty’ (Station Master, Yard Master and Train Dispatcher).
When I pulled up to the station a rainbow was clinging to the sky above the building.
I grabbed by Nikon Z6 with 70-200mm lens, and made a sequence of images of the station building in morning light with prismatic colors above.
Minutes after I made this photo, the light had changed and the rainbow faded.

Last week on my way to work at the North Conway, NH station, a magnificent rainbow graced the morning sky.
Rainbows are often fleeting, lasting only a few moments, yet this one hung in the sky for about a half an hour.
I made these photos using my new Nikon Z6 mirrorless digital camera.
After exposure I downloaded the camera and imported the camera RAW files (NEF) into Adobe Lightroom for processing.
I made nominal adjustments to color temperature, contrast and color saturation, then output the files as scaled JPGs while adding my watermark.
