Artist's Comments

Had a terrible camera on me :( The picture doesn't do justice to the clearest secondary rainbow I've seen so far (& ~xEmomuffinx & ~amy-cao can prove my statement!). But I MUSTMUSTMUST have this my gallery.

Would love to put up bigger version of this picture, except it looks really bad at anything bigger.

Fiddled a bit with the brightness so that the picture doesn't blind anyone...as badly as the original.

We had 2 in the last week alone (not sure if you went to Brain Bee, but we saw another 'one' on the bus there). If you count the way I do, we had 2 lots of 2 rainbows in the last week alone :)

There've been lots of them lately. :)

& thanks :)

It's so cool how the primary rainbow sort of divides the sky into brighter and duller parts XD

And well, the camera on your phone's good enough anyway XD

Are you up to chapter 4 yet? Or is that later in the year? Well, anyway, yeah, that's what actually got me aware of secondary rainbows.

Seriously, just look out for them whenever there're rainbows, & soon you'll see so many of them you'll probably want to stop seeing them :)

Yes, it actually does. There's some long scientific explanation behind it (as I said, I've been checking up on rainbows :) ), but it's something like that rainbows in that area can't reflect light into your eyes, so you see a darker band. I think it's called the Alexander Band or something...can' remember exactly.

This is why you should like science. Might tell you something about nature :)
