           Rainbows are spectacular rays of color. Sunlight looks white, but it's really made up of different colors like red, orange, yellow, green, blue, indigo, and violet. The sun makes rainbows when white sunlight passes through rain drops. The raindrops act like tiny prisms. They bend the different colors in white light, so the light spreads out into a band of colors that can be reflected back to you as a rainbow.


I love to see the rainbows, how to look for it?Three conditions must be met in order for you to see a rainbow. First, it must be raining. Second, the sun must be shining. Third, the observer must be between the sun and the rain. The lower the sun is in the sky, the higher the arc of the rainbow will be.


So whenever it rains and the sun is shining, my eyes are widely open and busy looking for a rainbow in the sky hehehehe....
