This was sent to me by a friend and I thought it was a really cool rainbow.

Compression killed it though. The original was 900 X 537...Sorry.... ::)

;D

Just changed it to 800 X 477, it should be within the limits. The upload took it w/o fussing.... ;)

;D

WOW!  Amazing rainbow!  And the tree just makes it PERFECT!

I dont know, but something makes me think its edited.  Even if it is, its still incredible

I have no idea if it's an edit or not. As I said, it was sent to me by a friend. I'm not talented enough to edit something that good...lmao.

;D


Ya, my dad sent me a picture once that was a bunch of USAF jets flying in a formation shaped like the letters U S A, which was edited but I didnt know.  That picture looks like a sort of artistic edit, to me it seems like its possible that the rainbow was there, but the tree and the golden fill was added.

I've tried googling it and I've tried Snopes.com and Hoaxbusters and I find no reference to this particular photo. But I did find that the picture depicts a Double Rainbow. If you Google Double Rainbows you'll find hundreds of pictures. Some are similar to this one. So your guess is as good as mine. I have no idea if it's real or not..... ???

;D

If anything has been tampered with on that photo then I would have that the area inside the inner rainbow had been altered to appear more golden. However, it could easily just be an illusion caused by the rainbow boarding the lighted area.

LMAO, leave it to Doug to find it.... ;D

Thanks, I spent hours searching and found nothing... :P

But I am glad to see that it appears to be real. Thanks for taking the time to search for it..... ;D

I can't see why it'd be fake. In fact, I've seen this before with my own eyes. ;)
