Nature's tie dye?

So I found this pretty rock and felt the need to bring it home. 

Can anyone tell me why it formed like that?

Looks like the cross section of a concretion to me. Layers of different minerals built up, much like a banded agate or geode.

It could be an example of liesegang banding. I have seen several examples that I've been undecided about calling layered concretion or liesegang banding. I suspect that in many cases it could be a combination of the two processes.

Please try to post a sharper photo with higher resolution, then it would be easier for us to judge this object.

Sorry @Ludwigia , I will try when I’m home. I only have my phone to take pictures with.
