The sunset after a week of rain

it's been raining off and on for a week... today, it rained almost all day, and, for a couple of hours, rained as hard as i've seen it rain in a long, long time... the backyard very nearly became a swimming pool and the poor box turtle was hugging the side of the house, trying to stay out of the rising water... but, this evening, as happens often here in buenos aires, there was another world class sunset... the forecast is calling for mostly cloudy tomorrow, but, after a sunset like this one, i can deal with it...
