California has been wet, windy, and wild this week. On Monday afternoon, I was driving west on Highway 4 near the Pittsburgh BART station en route to Marin County. I looked in my rearview mirror and saw the most spectacular rainbow I had seen in years. I wanted to stop and take a photograph, but that wasn’t feasible, so I did the next best thing: I held my phone up to the passenger-side mirror just to see if I could capture the essence of the rainbow. This is the result:
