Rainbow Canyon

Rainbows can be beautiful anywhere, but above the Grand Canyon makes for an extra illustrious scene. Your Shot photographer Narest Balaguru almost left his perch at Powell Point as a storm approached. But he waited, and was awarded with this view. This photo was submitted to Your Shot, our photo community on Instagram.
