Ipanema Sunset Storm: “Ipanema beach is very popular for watching the sunset. On this particular summer’s evening, a huge mass of clouds gathered; the sky was blue above the clouds and filled with rays of sunlight, and below it was yellow and orange with rain falling just in front of the sun” - Bruno Ipiranga, on his photograph taken on Ipanema Beach, Rio de Janeiro, Brazil.
