Nothing like New York when a storm approaches. Yesterday the air was muggy and thick. I walked uptown to the screening room, and started feeling whooshes of cold air careening in from the west. Storm a-coming. The light was ominous and glamorous (see above). I missed the rainfall, being in the screening room (perfect timing), and my walk back home to the bus was cool and beautiful. And I saw a gigantic rainbow over all of Manhattan on my bus ride home.

Awesome.
The other day after a sudden violent downpour over London I saw what I think is a supernumerary rainbow – that is, a rainbow with extra rainbows on the inside of the primary rainbow. Never seen one before in my life and couldn’t figure out what I was seeing at first. But it was beautiful.
Wow – sounds amazing!
