A circular rainbow
The sun must be directly at one’s back and there must be many suspended water droplets in the air where the Spectre’s glory appears. Sunlight enters the water droplets and reflects off the back of the droplets and the light comes back towards the sun and the observer. This phenomenon is called diffraction and causes the circular rainbow-like bands around the shadow. These Brocken Spectres are confined to high-mountain areas .
