      The photo at top shows the approach of a nasty thunderstorm over   
       Zagreb, Croatia, as observed on September 11, 2022. Note that the   
       precipitation shaft associated with this  storm cell is quite   
      obvious and is likely an indication of  strong winds.   
      
      The bottom photo shows a beautiful high-arching  rainbow that could   
      be seen as the storm departed. A portion of the  secondary rainbow   
      is clearly visible at upper right. This fainter bow results from a   
      second internal reflection in the raindrops. The darker strip of sky   
      between the primary and secondary bows is known as  Alexander's Dark   
      Band.
