Quoting jjhintn:
Light and water create rainbows. However, to see a rainbow, it must be raining (or snowing) in one part of the sky, the sun shining from the opposite part, and you must have your back to the sun. Then raindrops, like tiny prisms, scatter the white sunlight into brilliant colors--red, orange, yellow, green, blue, indigo, violet--and make a rainbow.
Look at the mountains covered in snow with the rainbow ... the story of my old fart life....try to make a little joke and i get a physics lesson....;-) ahh welll...
