California colours

Our arrival in Monterey was met with a little rain but a beautiful rainbow once the clouds had moved on. Below, a lamp hanging above the stairs in the beautiful Clement Monterey hotel.

Wow.. that's an incredibly brilliant rainbow! I love the lamp shot too. Two beauties. I hope you're enjoying your time. :)

Oh my goodness, did you play around wit the colours on the rainbow picture? I can not believe this is natural, it is almost as if illuminated.;)
Enjoy the rest of your trip,

Wow, what a rainbow! And thanks for saying that was a lamp. I was trying to work out what kind of mushroom grows upside-down.

The rainbow was stunning. Zuzana - no, I didn't change the colours, it really was like that. The unfortunate thing was when we arrived at the hotel I took a stroll outside and there was an even better rainbow which coevered the whole bay, but I didn't have my camera. I ran inside, up the stairway with the unusual lamp, grabbed the camera but when I got back to the boardwalk the rainbow had gone. This one appeared a little later, so all was not lost, but the previous one would have been great to picture as it covered the entire bay.
