This photo of Jerusalem’s Old City was taken in 2014 by Atlantan Jacob Ross, who tells us the story behind the shot: “I was working in the Old City. It had just rained, and I wanted to go to the Kotel, since it wouldn’t be crowded. On the way down, I noticed there was a double rainbow over the Temple Mount, so I took the photo immediately. It was taken on my iPhone. Ten minutes after I took the picture, the rainbow had disappeared.”
