Unweaving a Rainbow
Do not all charms fly
At the touch of cold philosophy?
Philosophy will clip an Angel's wings,
Conquer all mysteries by rule and line,
Empty the haunted air, and gnomed mine–
Unweave a rainbow...
- John Keats
I'm not sure if I agree with Keats in saying "all charms fly at the touch of philosophy". You can try to understand the physics of the world around you and still, as William Wordsworth says, feel your heart leaps when you behold a rainbow in the sky.
And here are some fantastic shots of a double rainbow, it does really make your heart leap!
