Spectacular cloud/rainbow at Sonys
 
1 Attachment(s)
We were dining outside at Sonys at a table facing Hallmark store when the storm clouds suddenly parted and a rainbow appeared. Had my phone handy and caught a few images before it all faded away

Great skies!
 
Since we have moved to The Villages we have noticed that the sunsets and the sky/cloud formations are spectacular. When we walk in the evening we always say that Florida has some of the best skies we've ever seen. Thanks for posting!

We were driving in our cart to LSL last night and saw the rainbow. Beautiful!

Sandra you are an artist and a magician and a cover girl too. (And a warm, nice person)

NO ONE could catch a picture like that on a phone but YOU.

for all those detectives, I DID mention "Sonnys" in the first line of my post LOL

Thank you, sweet Gracie for the compliments :) I continue to be captivated by Florida's spectacular skies. Happy Monday. S

I've lived in several parts of Florida off and on for many years. We decided early that since the land is so flat and featureless, the big and beautiful sky is the landscape. You can look up almost any time of the day or evening and see spectacular beauty.

That is a beautiful picture, but where is the Sony store? Do they sell other electronics too?

It must be on Canal Street, near the square?

Thanks

Sorry.....of course you meant the restaurant! I read it so quickly....and typed too quickly too.

The rainbow was spectacular for sure! A HUGE arc...plus it was a double rainbow...it lasted for a good while before disappearing!! Unfortunate for me I didn't have a camera with me. Thank you for posting!

Yes you did say Sonny's but think you forgot the 2nd *n* so someone corrected you on that!! :-)

Cantwaittoarrive 10-01-2012 02:01 PM

I also saw this rainbow while at Sonny's

The gorgeous blue skies, fluffy clouds, and spectacular sunsets were a wonderful surprise bonus when we moved to The Villages.
