Week #4 - Look Closely: There's Two.


 

After the gloominess of last week’s storms I was so relieved when the sunlight came out again. After the sky being dark and gray for so many days, it was interesting to see how the sun peeking through the clouds could really have such a positive affect on me. To top it off, I was so happy when the day after the storms I saw a magnificent rainbow out the window of my friend’s car. But what was especially interesting and beautiful was that there was a double rainbow running parallel with the first. The one rainbow was very bright and noticeable, while the second one was very dim and you could barely see it. It is difficult to see in the photo, but if you look closely you can see the second rainbow to the right of the bright one. I was especially excited about this because it was the same week that we were learning about color theory in class. Seeing the different colors in the spectrum right there displayed in nature was stunning. It was interesting also to experience how witnessing colors in lighting could be so pleasing to the eye.
