This one took me a bit by surprise: I was trying to get a nice close-up on the shimmery sun-rain effect on a building across from the bus station - then suddenly I noticed this blummin' great double rainbow! Noice.
I have once or twice seen a tripple rainbow. (sorry no photo) they have generaly been on days like today, with bright sun inbetween banks of rain clouds. Any one else seen doubles or tripples.
Marvellous rainbow shot :) You must have quite a wide lens to get all that in. I've never seens a triple: I thought you needed to see one over water for that (i.e. extra rainbows generated from light reflected off the water) :)
No they were definatley tripples or the same rainbow, The main one very bright, the second like in the photo not as bright (still quite bright) with a dark band between, The third outside the other two and very faint.
I've seen pictures of triple bows, but I don't think I've seen one myself.
The K700i has a 4.1mm lens (1:2.8) - the second shot is a double-image panorama.
