COLORFUL MOMENTS CAPTURED.

THE MESMERIZING SPECTRUM OF A RAINBOW :NATURE'S COLORFUL ARC.

A rainbow is a meteorological phenomenon that is caused by reflection, refraction, and dispersion of light in water droplets, resulting in a spectrum of light appearing in the sky. It takes the form of a multicolored circular arc. Rainbows caused by sunlight always appear in the section of sky directly opposite the sun.

 

Here are the main features of a rainbow

1. Colors: A rainbow displays a range of colors typically including red, orange, yellow, green, blue, indigo, and violet. These colors blend seamlessly into one another.

2. Arc Shape: A rainbow usually forms a circular arc. The center of this arc is directly opposite the sun, and the most intense part of the rainbow is typically at an angle of about 42 degrees from the direction opposite the sun.

3. Formation: Rainbows are formed when sunlight is both refracted and reflected inside raindrops. Light is refracted upon entering the droplet, reflected inside on the back of the droplet, and then refracted again when it exits, causing the spectrum of colors to spread out.

4. Double Rainbow: Sometimes a secondary, fainter rainbow forms outside the primary rainbow. This secondary rainbow has its colors reversed, with red on the inside and violet on the outside, due to an additional reflection of light within the water droplets.

5. Optical Illusion: A rainbow is not a physical object that can be approached or touched. It is an optical phenomenon that depends on the viewer's perspective. As you move, the rainbow moves with you.

6. Cultural Significance: Rainbows have been seen as symbols of hope, promise, and peace across various cultures and mythologies. They are often associated with beauty and the wonder of nature.
