My own private rainbow

During my lunch hour I walk across the street to the Plaza of the Americas building to read. I was really into Les Miz the other day when I noticed things started glowing around me.

Inside the windows at both ends of the atrium in the Plaza are large prisms that refract the afternoon light creating rainbows that move throughout the atrium. One of the rainbows was descending on my table.

I got out my iPrecious and snapped a few pictures. The rainbow slowly moved across the table, onto the wall then drifted off to somewhere else.

I love the bold colors and the abstract look to the pictures.
