Barb, what a gorgeous image! I so need that rainbow! Hugs.

Thanks Teagan! That rainbow was an absolute gift after a weekend where every time we set foot in a stone circle, it was a sign for the heavens to open, and rains of biblical proportions to smack us. (At one point, our leader announced that his belly button had filled with rain…)

After days of getting absolutely pelted by rain every time we stepped into a stone circle, this rainbow was an astonishing and welcome gift.

Thanks! It was a soggy but unforgettable trip—a chance to stand in the same places that people had considered sacred for over six thousand years. I felt sad that so much of what they knew about these places has been lost, but so lucky to be there!

Stunning shot, Barb! And yes… it was indeed a gift after that drenching 🙂

I firmly believe so too… But I guess I also believe in Free Will when it comes to human choices…. However Fate trascends everything. If it has to happens it will, for good or worse. (Even the Bible says so).

After the rain there’s the rainbow. If only we can make it through the rain. Love this photo. Just beautiful.
