All hail the QUEEN! 👑

Female Rufous get more refractive throat feathers as they age.

This Ms. wears her age like an emerald and ruby necklace!

close up photo of a mature female rufous hummingbird with many refractive throat feathers. she is facing the camera looking up and to the right. her feathers are refracting red, orange and green.

Tequila bottle, really enjoy the refractive ascension going on. Guess I’ll just call it “ascension” lol

deftly using a hand mirror to utilise light waves to copy answers from the kid near me in a test on refractive properties of light, I should have got a bloody medal for that one

The aptly named "Light of the Desert".

Weighing in at 898 carats, this is the largest faceted cerussite gem in the world. Its incredible refractive properties make for amazing #lights!

#BlueSkyArtShow #macro #photography #ECK #Abstractia #Geometric #Rainbow #WhiteLead #Gemstones #Rocks #OooShiny
A macro image of a massive sparkling stone held in the Royal Ontario Museum's collection. The faceted stone is roughly triangular with rounded corners. It is extremely refractive, but far too soft to be used in jewelry. The cerussite is a lead carbonate also called "white lead". It was the key ingredient in lead paint as well as historical cosmetics.

Oh, you LOVE sex, huh? Well what's the refractive index of cum then, since you're such a huge fan?

Because the refractive index, the speed of light in the humid air above the lake, can vary from day to day, the degree of curvature observed varies, from appearing almost flat to clearly demonstrating curvature.

This means it's possible to cherry pick images to support either case.
Flat Earth debunking website demonstrates how refractive index alters the curvature observed.
