G’night, London

August 10th, 2008 @ 10:58 PM Nature, On the Streets

HMS Belfast, Tower Bridge, rain & a blasting sunset

A storm over the Thames this evening proved once again who runs the lighting around here. Once the rain let up after supper, this full-arc (sometimes double) rainbow sprang from (according to where we stood, anyway) the Tower over the HMS Belfast and Tower Bridge to bury itself behind City Hall. (click any of the images to enhugify).

More after the jump …

Oh, and good night, London, thanks for everything. I’m returning home to L.A. first thing Monday with a heavy heart and a skullfulla cultcha. You’ve been fantastic.

Watch this space. The Metblogs authors have ideas.
