    Has-been? That’s nice coming from the ones who were too busy playing games when it started to rain.

    Irish Rovers singing in my head. Pegusus flew off into the sunset, somewhere over the rainbow, never to be seen again. But Mr. Ed says he thinks he saw Peg cavorting with Black Beauty. Another lovely painting, THOM.

    =====Thanks Gopher, gofer. That is a version I don’t remember- I forgot about the unicorn wings.

    In a “primary rainbow”, the arc shows red on the outer part and violet on the inner side. This rainbow is caused by light being refracted (bent) when entering a droplet of water, then reflected inside on the back of the droplet and refracted again when leaving it.

    In a double rainbow, a second arc is seen outside the primary arc, and has the order of its colours reversed, red facing toward the other one, in both rainbows. This second rainbow is caused by light reflecting twice inside water droplets.

    ````````THOM must have painted a double secondary rainbow, and left the primary rainbow out. ;-)
