As Junichi was riding the bus, he could see the blue sky from the window. When a bus parked right next to him, he thought that the floating clouds made an interesting composition, as seen over Atagohama, Fukuoka City, Japan.

I didn’t really take the shot for the appearance of the rainbow as such, but for the fact that the rainbow was visibly behhind the pannus. (As always, by the time I had picked up the camera, things had moved beyond the best – but I managed to catch a bit.)
How can anyone resist a beautiful sight like this?
They might not be rare, but there’s always room for another rainbow.
Thanks, David!
