Yosemite Moonbow

Date: 23 Mar 2012
By: Jim Goldstein
Comment: 3

It’s just about that time of year again when the moon makes rainbows in Yosemite valley. Moonbows are particularly magical because they’re almost invisible to the naked eye due to our limited night vision. It’s for this reason that when you review moonbow photos on your camera (assuming you’re shooting with a digital camera) the end result almost appears to be magical.

“My heart leaps up when I behold
A rainbow in the sky.” – William Wordsworth

If you’re interested in photographing moonbows be sure to check out my Moonbow Photo Tours schedule for this April and May.

    You used to be able to get moonbows at Niagara Falls many years ago. Now the hotel skyline there has become crowded and it’s difficult if not impossible to get them after the Falls lights are shut off.

    That’s a nice image you have and I would have never thought of shooting that.
