Grand Canyon Rainbow


Hello again readers and welcome back! In the middle of August we took a small vacation out to the greater Las Vegas area, which included a day trip to Grand Canyon National Park. It was the first time that I visited the park since I visited with my family when I was young. However, that trip was not nearly as fun as I would have liked it to be, as the entire trip I was sick with mononucleosis. This year another trip out there finally became a reality, and I was not fighting a terrible infection the whole time!

This photo was taken right outside of Grand Canyon Village at the South Rim. We were met with a pop up rain shower right after we landed from our short flight to the Grand Canyon, and during the drive from the airport it mostly cleared up. This shot was totally unexpected, as I was taking photos of the view from the overlook with the wide angle lens, and Jill pointed out there was a rainbow that was visible on the right side of the view. Sure, it would have been awesome to catch a much more prominent rainbow, but hey, a small bit of a rainbow is better than no rainbow!
