A rainbow forms as a squall moves past the harbour in St Ives in Cornwall
A rainbow forms as a squall moves past the harbour in St Ives in Cornwall, November 21, 2012. Five parking spaces are to be auctioned for about 50, 000 pounds ($79, 850) in St Ives, a popular seaside holiday destination. St Ives popularity, and its small narrow streets make parking difficult, which explains why the newly available spots are expected to sell for twice the average annual local wage according to local media.

EDITORS COMMENTS
A mesmerizing sight unfolds as a vibrant rainbow gracefully arches over the picturesque harbour of St Ives in Cornwall. Captured on November 21,2012, this breathtaking moment coincides with the passing squall, creating a harmonious blend of nature's beauty and dramatic weather. The tranquil waters reflect the kaleidoscope of colors, casting an ethereal glow upon the charming seaside town. However, amidst this idyllic scene lies a pressing issue that plagues St Ives - limited parking spaces. In response to the ever-growing popularity of this beloved holiday destination, five coveted parking spots are set to be auctioned for approximately £50,000 ($79,850). This exorbitant price tag reflects both the scarcity and high demand for convenient parking solutions within St Ives' narrow streets. Local media reports suggest that these newly available spaces are expected to fetch twice the average annual local wage due to their rarity and sought-after status. As visitors flock to experience St Ives' sandy beaches and quaint charm year-round, finding suitable parking becomes an arduous task. Photographer Andrew Winning captures not only this enchanting natural phenomenon but also sheds light on the challenges faced by residents and tourists alike in securing a place for their vehicles amidst such scenic surroundings. This image serves as a reminder of how even paradise-like locations can grapple with practical issues like parking constraints.
