Yosemite Falls Moonbow Times Two

Uploaded: May 13, 2009

Description

I had to figure out how to top my Yosemite Falls night reflection shot from last year. I think I did it!

I shot this at 16mm wide, exposed for 30 seconds at f/2.8, ISO 6400, using a 3 stop graduated neutral density filter (Cokin #121) to cut the light from the upper, non-reflected half of the image.

Tioga Pass is scheduled to open in mid-May, so I'll return to Yosemite Valley June 7 (after my Eastern Sierra workshop) to catch this phenomenon again.


Exif: F Number: 2.8, Exposure Bias Value: 3.67, ExposureTime: 30/1 seconds, Flash: did not fire, compulsory flash mode, ISO: 6400, White balance: Auto white balance, FocalLength: 16.00 mm, Model: Canon EOS 5D Mark II
