Patagonia. The moisture in the air to enable rainbows was mostly water whipped up from the lakes and fjords by the wind. And it was very windy - at times people resorted to all fours to prevent being blown over.

Thanks. It's taken from more or less the same place as the 1st one, but with a longer lens (the pass on the right of the 1st one).

Near Milton Keynes last week. Behind me a spectacular sunset was developing, I didn't know where to look. The farmer is guarding the crock of gold with an armoured tractor.
