lokisbong: Nah, it’s just the way the light is going through your lens. If you were to do a bulb/extended exposure of the direct sun, it might harm your sensor, but that’s not likely to happen since the exposure’s going to end up only several hundredths or thousandths of a second.

clouddancer: When I was a kid, I spent summers in Florida with my Grandmother. We saw lots of rainbows, and they were almost always doubles and triples. The second and subsequent bows are usually quite a bit fainter and easy to miss. I see them in the midwest, too, though.
