Double means there's two of something.

A Rainbow is an optical and meteorological phenomenon that causes a spectrum of light to appear in the sky when the Sun shines onto droplets of moisture in the Earth's atmosphere. The overall effect is that the incoming light is reflected back over a wide range of angles, with the most intense light at an angle of 40–42°.

Playa, also known as an alkali flat or sabkha, a desert basin with no outlet which periodically fills with water to form a temporary lake. Burning Man is a party of 50,000 people on a dry lake bed (playa)100 miles north of Reno, where I participate every year now, and is where I took this photo.

I hope this helps.

I'm sure I made a comment on this when I added it to my favourites but It's not there now, so I guess I must have not checked the post box. I love this shot for the obvious reasons (gorgeous shot of gorgeous dog) but also because it brings back good memories of a time when my husband and I bred Irish setters (way back in the 70s).

Well, I guess there's a first for everything! Thank you everyone! Wow! Yeah, this shot was from over the perimeter fence at Burning Man, at the airport after a rain storm. I've learned that if I can impress William88, the photo will do well! I thought it was too grainy, and I almost swapped it out for a sunrise shot. It would have done well, too, but not in this competition.
