Photo by @chien_chi_chang / @magnumphotos It was late on a September afternoon in 2010 in the Burmese capital of Yangon. The air was hot and humid. One heavy gray cloud obscured the sun, and others sailed behind. Above each monolithic cloud, it seemed, there was a gigantic bucket of water at tipping point. In an instant, the bucket overflowed over downtown Yangon. The pedestrians and street vendors all reacted reflexively—finding refuge under colorful umbrellas, sheltering their wares, walking carefully around potholes of water in their sandals. While the rain continued to pour, the sun seeped through the clouds. A distant Buddhist chant provided a baseline to the cacophony of merchants, walkers, shoppers and commuters. Then it was all over, business as usual, just another day during the rainy season. #yangon #burma #rangoon #business #buddhist #myanmar #rain #market by natgeo http://ift.tt/1JnyJPV – Gatlinburg Garden Castle Rainbow Tower Library Imagination Station Temple Water Spirit Guardian Labyrinth Treasury Magic Healing
