In sharply defined rainbows, a set of narrow coloured bands can often be found repeating on the inside of the primary bow. Called supernumerary bows, they add an extra-special dimension to the display and are produced by diffraction as light waves cross each other exiting the raindrops, as seen here over Amsterdam, Netherlands.

On the summit of Wales’ highest mountain, there is a plaque. It reads: Wanderer, stop a while . Consider the wonderous works of God, and of your short passage on this Earth.
Quite.

Hi Maisie
Cool eh!I have just joined the couldappreciation socoiety, best £2 ever, ever spent!
this type of cloud is indicative of possible or likely tornado threats.Beautiful though it may be, for those who have been through tornadoes…it is a vision of awe and, yes, fear…
The presence of mammatus clouds often indicates a vigorous cumulonimbus in the vicinity. If the mammatus clouds are relatively weak, in distance, and not approaching, the threat from the storm that produced them is not likely to be very great. However, if they are large and approaching, the sky should be watched closely for the possibility of severe weather.
Page 473 from from National Audubon Society.

Very strange, very X-Files…
DODGE
