    If you're at all interested in this stuff, Atmospheric Optics is a fantastic resource that illustrates and explains these phenomena with both depth and accessibility. Note that the menu on the left hides lots of layers.

    Super old school, love that it's still online.

    (edit: incidentally, rainbows and glories fall under the water droplets category)
