California is entering its rainbow season. It runs from autumn through springtime.
When storms are clearing, the best time to see rainbows is when the sun is behind you and you are looking toward rain or mist.
Color spotter Crys Black captured just such a moment at the Sandhill Crane festival (Woodbridge Ecological Reserve, west of Lodi) as sunset approached.
A storm had just departed and illuminated by sunset light in the moist sky were rainbows and Sandhill Cranes. The latter were returning to the reserve to spend the night safe from predators.
Rainbow season provides all sorts of moments in which to be inspired by nature’s beauty.
