I'm surprised to not find this phenomenon in Corlis. I could have sworn I
|
|
saw it there. He does have the somewhat similar dark sky between a rainbow
|
|
and a secondary bow. I personally have seen a rainbow enclosing a
|
|
semi-circle of darker sky.
|
|
|
|
I know I've read about pillars under the Sun and Moon elsewhere, but I can't
|
|
recall if they were reportedly dark or bright. I do know these sorts of
|
|
things are supposed to be quirks of optics not of the visual system. I'm
|
|
sorry I haven't got any answers, but a search through some books on
|
|
atmospheric optics ought to turn a few hints up.
