Waiting for the sun to set and the bats of Mulu to take flight, mother nature treated us to this wonderful rainbow as a shower drifted across the hills.

Taken from the lookout on the eastern part of the island, the ship is beached on the sandy isthmus that joins the two parts of the island. The water here was really shallow - the two people on the right of the image are actually sitting down at this point, not standing. The varying depths of the water and the light ripples of the breeze driven waves are refracting the sunlight to give the rainbow effect of this image.
In this image we're technically over Zambia, looking west to Zimbabwe at the top of the photo. The cloud of spray at the top of the photo was the cloud in which the rainbow in yesterday's image was formed.
