Rainbow Bridge

Last summer artist John Hilton called to tell us he was inspired to paint Rainbow Bridge by moonlight, especially for this Christmas issue. Later he wrote: “we arrived a couple of days after full moon. The weather was unsettled and for a while we thought we might have to postpone the bridge by moonlight. Late in the afternoon it started to rain... someone said I should paint the rainbow over the bridge. I reached for my camera and enclosed is one of the shots I took. It didn't look good for moonlight, but at least we were privileged to see the bridge with a rainbow.” Never before in our memory have we reproduced two masterpieces one a photograph, one a painting, by the same contributor.
