Neighborhood View of the Day:
Did you catch last night’s rainbow? It wasn’t as long or full as the best ones ever from June, but it was very deep which you can tell from the amount of definition in the color bands. The shadow, i.e., double, rainbow is also barely visible on the far right of this photo taken looking over Yacht Haven in Boston Harbor.
