The Story Behind the Image - Yorkshire Dales Rainbow
One of our most memorable family holidays was a week spent in a self-catering cottage at Airton, near Skipton, in the south-eastern Yorkshire Dales. During that week I made several trips - both sunrise and sunset - to photograph the limestone pavement at nearby Malham Cove.
On one occasion I was on my way to photograph Malham Cove at sunset. I was walking along the footpath to the Cove from Malham village when I looked up at the ridge above me and saw this incredible rainbow coming to earth beside a solitary tree, with the sky behind it turning golden orange from the setting sun.
I set up my tripod as quickly as I could and managed to take this photo before the rainbow disappeared.
