Panoramas capture double rainbows at their fullest and grandest, at no time more so than just before sunset, when the bows are as near to a half-semicircle at ground level as possible. This near the end of the solar day, the entire rainbow reddens and yellows in the warm light, along with the rest of the sky and landscape. That renders the purple and blue inner parts (inner bow) and outer parts (outer bow) most difficult to see. Still, all the colors are being refracted and reflected. Because the sun sets in the WNW at this time of year and latitude, the center (apex) of the rainbows is south of the east-west dirt road in the view. Now shown: the rich, earthy, moist aroma of a previously dry land after a soaking rain!
