Is is worth it to bring Tarwathie on a 4000 mile round trip to Lake Champlain every year? Was it worth the trouble and expense to put the mast up? Yes yes yes, thousand times yes. Sometimes, it only takes one magic moment to make everything worthwhile. So was the case August 22, on Lake Champlain in Shelburne Bay. The picture of Tarwathie below is not faked or retouched in any way.
Click on the image to see it full screen and uncropped. Look closely at the upper right and you can see a second rainbow. The wide angle lens was not wide enough to capture the 2nd of the double rainbow. It really was a magic moment.
You can download a high resolution copy of the picture here. It was taken by, Brian McPhee
bmphoto@videotron.ca; a professional photographer. He just happened to be anchored near us that evening and in a perfect place to make the shot. Professional photographers can be prickly if their work is misued. Brian gave permission to post it to my blog.
