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!


To join this new challenge, this is all you have to do:

  1. Use YOUR OWN photography
  2. Use the tag #nationaldays
  3. Check the web on sites like this for the day's challenges to choose from
  4. Write a post daily, or as often as you like
  5. Anyone can join in, but nominate 2 people if you like
  6. Copy and paste the challenge guidelines into your post

I nominate @dswigle and @old-guy-photos to make a post starting today or tomorrow. If you don't want to do it, no pressure! The challenge is open to anyone! It's a great way to come up with themes for your posts!


If you wish to participate in the #wiwcontest for this week, you will find the theme and the rules here. Any SBD donations towards the rewards would be most welcome.
