Unexpected Rainbows (Part 6)
No, this is not some glowing nebula* in the vastness of space, but mini-rainbows on dark flooring produced by those glass "bricks" people use for getting light into buildings while having a gbit of privacy. The varying thickness and different angles of the glass in the bricks act as prisms, giving this very interesting effect.
