While lightning makes for amazing photographs, and japanese prints capture the awe-inspiring power of tidal waves, few of nature's forces are as subtly powerful as the rainbow. </h3> <p> It's hard to imagine a world without the palette rainbows provide us. While 1940s movies are certainly cool to look at, living in one would be dull indeed.</p> <p>With that in mind, here is a collected assortment of rainbows caught in their understated beauty for your viewing pleasure and inspiration. Enjoy!</p> <p class="imgC"><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/chosadesign/2926109671/sizes/o/in/pool-777226@N22/"><img src="http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3117/2926109671_e2dbdc605c_o.jpg"
