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.

Stephen, I took up your invitation to see your photo gallery – and mighty I did so! Wonderful photos indeed – a real pleasure to view. Your photographic command is highly commendable in no small way!
I especially like your monochromatic photos. Your photos confirm what I always have felt, and still feel, in that they somehow beat colour even though what we see, via our eyes, is in colour. I think monochrome when used for landscape (including clouds) and portraiture takes a lot of overcoming.
Thanks again.
Laurence
A celestial feather to give our Moon a wee dusting, per chance?!? Great shot, Stephen.
