Shooting moonbows....how they do it

Post by The Other Tom »

There is a you tube video on moonbows (Yosemite Nature Notes 15), and here is how they filmed it

I saw this video the other day. Amazing stuff. The results were well worth all the time spent getting the images. I would love to see this in person one day.

I took my first moonbow shots this year. Actually my first night shots ever. It is interesting how fast the stars in the sky move their position...I know, it's the earth moving. (I haven't seen the new Nature Notes yet...can't on my dial up.)

The funny things is, and I've seen moonbows for over 30 years...the 'bows are pastel colors to your naked eye, but full rainbow colors in the photos.
