"and no banding of any type is seen in a black-and-white photograph of a rainbow (only a smooth gradation of intensity to a maxima, then fading to a minima at the other side of the arc). For colors seen by a normal human eye, the most commonly cited and remembered sequence, in English, is Newton's sevenfold red, orange, yellow, green, blue, indigo and violet (popularly memorized by mnemonics like Roy G. Biv). However, color-blind persons will see fewer colors. Rainbows can be caused by many forms of airborne water. These include not only rain, but also mist, spray, and airborne"
"His color sequence including the tertiary color indigo is kept alive today by the ""Roy G. Biv"" mnemonic. Originally he used only five colors, but later he added orange and indigo to match the number of musical notes in the major scale. The Munsell color system, the first formal color notation system (1905), names only five ""principal hues"": red, yellow, green, blue, and purple (although note that Munsell's purple is not a spectral hue). Another traditional mnemonic device has been to turn the initial letters of seven spectral colors into a sentence. In Britain the most common is ""Richard Of"
"names do not necessarily agree with those in English. The division used by Isaac Newton, in his color wheel, was: red, orange, yellow, green, blue, indigo and violet; a mnemonic for this order is ""Roy G. Biv"". Less commonly, ""VIBGYOR"" is also used for the reverse order. In modern divisions of the spectrum, indigo is often omitted. One needs at least trichromatic color vision for there to be a distinction between spectral and non-spectral colours: trichromacy gives a possibility to perceive both hue and saturation in the chroma. In color models capable of representing spectral colors, such as CIELUV, a"
"example of a mnemonic strategy that imposes organization is the ""peg-word system"" which associates the to-be-remembered items with a list of easily remembered items. Another example of a mnemonic device commonly used is the first letter of every word system or acronyms. When learning the colours in a rainbow most students learn the first letter of every colour and impose their own meaning by associating it with a name such as Roy. G.

Since the Void represents the death of all living beings, and there was no way to bring it to justice without killing Robert Reynolds, the memory of it was judged too horrible to remain in the public's collective unconscious. With a combination of Reed Richards' technology, Doctor Strange's magic, and the Sentry's own immeasurable mental abilities, the entire human race was hypnotized to forget the existence of both the Void and"

Although the Lancastrian nobles might have been prepared to allow Salisbury to ransom himself, he was dragged out of Pontefract Castle and beheaded by local commoners, to whom he had been a harsh overlord.

And this I did, partly because my own eyes are not very critical in distinguishing colours, partly because another, to whom I had not communicated my thoughts about this matter, could have nothing but his eyes to determine his fancy in making those marks. Indigo is therefore counted as one of the traditional colors of the rainbow, the order of which is given by the mnemonic"

In New Age and Hindu philosophy, the seven colours of the rainbow represent the seven chakras, from the first chakra (red) to the seventh chakra (violet). Rainbows are generally described as very colourful and peaceful. The rainbow occurs often in paintings. Frequently these have a symbolic or programmatic significance (for example, Albrecht Dürer's Melancholia I). In particular, the rainbow appears regularly in religious art (for example, Joseph Anton Koch's ""Noah's Thank Offering""). Romantic landscape painters such as Turner and Constable were more concerned with recording fleeting effects of light (for example, Constable's"
