During the spring in Yosemite, you can! They're called moonbows. They occur during a full moon when the waterfalls are rushing and causing lots of mist. Then you need a clear night and the angle between moon, photographer, and mist to be 42 degrees.
I visited Yosemite in April of 2022 with the singular goal of getting a moonbow picture. My first night, clouds were just clearing as the moon rose. In fact, moonrise was completely obscured.
A thin haze of clouds washed the entire sky. The other photographers at the bridge where Lower Yosemite Falls crash into the rocks were not optimistic. As the predicted time approached, the light of the Pink Moon strengthened, and I started to make out a thin white arc forming in the mist. For the next hour, I shot the moonbow as it moved and danced with the mist.
Sound challenging? It's definitely something you have to plan for. You can't see the colors with the naked eye, and sometimes it's hard to even see if it's there. Your camera has to pick it up. A common experience was people standing there, looking at the falls in the dark, somewhat overwhelmed. Then they'd take a shot and look at they're picture of the moonbow on their viewfinder and say, "Oh...wow!

What's great about open editions, you ask?
Open editions highlight some of the amazing places I've been lucky enough to experience. They're perfect for collecting on a budget.
Open editions can be bought by anyone who is interested. You also might find them on a puzzle.
If you're interested in something a little more rare, have a look at my limited editions. Unlike open editions, a limited number of prints will be made, and then no one can buy them again.
