Huge Rainbow over the City of London

Sat at my desk, working away and as I look up I see a stunning sight. A sight that had me literally throwing off my reading glasses and running across the room with camera to catch it before it vanished.

Amazingly, it actually lasted a good couple of minutes and got stronger in intensity as time went on.

I’ll let the photos tell the rest – you may make your own inferences about the City, Banks and Pots of Gold.

Right on the Gherkin

Clouds breaking

Incredibly, about an hour later a second rainbow appeared – this time with both an Alexander Band and a strong reflection in the River Thames
