Today is NATIONAL FIND A RAINBOW DAY, so I went searching among my files to see if I could find a rainbow! As it turns out, the first one I found was photographed in Leith, near Edinburgh, Scotland in 2006! It has a hint of a double rainbow. Can you see it?

The idea to revive this theme came from the very talented artist @rigaronib in this post. So, many thanks @rigaronib for giving me some inspiration!
