Caption   A fogbow arches over snow coaches in Yellowstone National Park, Wyoming, on the morning of January 30, 2025. Fogbows are similar to rainbows, formed by water droplets via refraction and reflection. However, unlike rainbows, fogbows are caused by such small drops that substantial diffraction also occurs, smearing the bow's colors and making it appear white.
