This one was a whole half circle... but... didn't the earth get in the way?

It was pretty small, I could only see the whole thing from just the right angle or the earth did get in the way.

Ahhh, I see. Crazy.
Too bad you didn't get any pics... my double rainbow might not be rare (:crying:), but I'm sure THAT is.

Double rainbows always have an inner rainbow that's stronger than the second outer one... it was easier to see both of them in real life than in the pictures. If you look, you can see that the second one is inverted (the colors go the other way, so it's kind of like a larger mirror image of the brighter inner rainbow).
