Description
Miraval Cabardès, Aude, FranceIt was taken in the late afternoon, as I had the sun in my back, which was going down quickly and about to disapear behind a mountain.
Horizontality of the rays provided the rainbow for a few minutes.
I didn't have time to install the tripod so it was taken hand-held, with no possibility to get closer, because of the river under.
The polarizing filter permitted me to catch the rainbow at its maximum intensity.
Nikon D800 @ iso 400, 1/30
Nikkor 70-200 mm f/2.8 @ 155 mm, f/8.0
Hoya polarizing filter
Post treatment : slightly enhanced colors, played with clarity on water, local contrasts and luminosities.

Sure we have to decide quickly when photographying nature . My luck was that the rainbow was protected by vegetation, giving a good ambiance light ...
Kind of you Judy !

So beautiful, it looks almost unreal, like you are looking through the branches and you see a mystical magical realm. Β

I love the contrast between the dark and the light and colors of the water and the rainbow. Good catch

Merci Alex !
