Primary and secondary reflective rainbows

Reflective rainbows captured in Cleveland 6/7/16

Most rainbows you see are refractive rainbows where the light bends through rain drops and you see the rainbow when looking towards the direction of the sun. Reflective rainbows are when the light bounces off the rain drops and back at you with the sun at your back. You can see the fainter secondary bow above the primary.

I just saw one in Montreal :))
