The call came right before dusk. “Adam, where are you? Wait, it doesn’t matter. There’s a rainbow outside. See if you can get it!” Rebecca Woods, news editor of DisciplesWorld called me on the first night of my hobby. That week, I was photographing the General Assembly for the Christian Church (Disciples of Christ). Had I been two minutes earlier — or two minutes later — I wouldn’t have captured the rainbow.
And even then, I thought it was the best rainbow I’d ever capture.
I don’t think I have a drop of Irish blood in me, but a phone call was the forebearer of the perfect rainbow in my most recent trip to DFW.
After a great 24 hours of planning with the DYMN planning team I waited for Heidi and my in-laws (Larry and Wenche) to arrive at Dallas’ Love Airport. The cell phone lot can be a great place to weather a storm. The rain came in in waves. And in my little rental car I kept going on my cell-phone conversation. And then, once it finished, I looked to my left and saw a full rainbow.
There’s something about the Metroplex — and maybe something about Texas — that brings out such beauty.
