You are a very lucky man to see this. But I think I was a bit luckier than you because I saw two different supernumarary in 24 hours and the last one is twinned also.

Andrew,

Nice pictures; thanks for sharing them! And happy 22nd birthday!

Hello,

I thought you might like to see this double rainbow shot yesterday evening, from Aberdeen, UK.

There was also a "supernumerary rainbow" showing underneath the main one, which I've never seen so clearly before.

I've applied some processing to exaggerate the colours. Saying that, this process is not a great exaggeration to how it appeared by eye - very spectacular.

It's a slow-starting spring for us in Scotland, so the trees are still leafless. The sequoias and rhododendrons keep their leaves all year round of course. I think this scene marks the start of good weather.

It was a very nice scene to end my 21st year of life!

Details: Sony A-300 DSLR with kit lens at 18mm, f/8. ISO200

Cheers
Andrew Phethean

This one's got a lot of extra contrast/saturation to show the supernumerary.
