Why is there a rainbow in the middle of the night? This luminous arc shining against the granite walls of Yosemite Valley is not a daytime rainbow, but a moonbow — a rainbow created by moonlight instead of sunlight. The bright full Moon illuminates Yosemite Falls, one of North America’s tallest waterfalls, producing enough light for airborne mist to refract, reflect, and disperse into its constituent colors.
Acquisition details: 30s, 40mm, f/4, ISO 800
