Skittles - Taste the rainbow

Ahhhh another rainy day in Portland but what else is new? But there was finally a sunbreak so I went outside for some fresh air and look what I saw!

A rainbow is an optical and meteorological phenomenon that causes a spectrum of light to appear in the sky when the Sun shines onto droplets of moisture in the Earth's atmosphere. They take the form of a multicoloured arc, with red on the outer part of the arch and violet on the inner section of the arch. Rainbows can be caused by other forms of water than rain, including mist, spray, and dew.
