Road Sign Bows
Road sign bow at night. Embedded tiny plastic lenses refract light like the droplets of a rainbow. The light source producing the bow is a street light on the upper right. The photo does not show it. The bows are sometimes incomplete because large signs are often made in several pieces with their reflective components differently aligned.
