They're called moonbows. They happen during a full moon when the waterfalls are rushing and causing lots of mist. Add in a clear night plus make sure the the angle between moon, photographer, and mist is 42 degrees.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eI visited Yosemite in April of 2022 with the singular goal of getting a moonbow picture. My last night in the park, I wanted to try and get Upper Yosemite Falls and Half Dome in the same shot. \u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHowever, the moonbow wasn't going to happen until late, and I had already pulled an all nighter getting up to Glacier Point. Plus the position of the moonbow was going to be too low for my composition.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSo instead, I trekked to the path in Cook's meadow and found a nice quiet spot to set up my tripod. The park was quiet and peaceful. Frogs croaked in the stream of water in front of me. The stars started to come out and the moon rose.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan dir=\"auto\" class=\"d2edcug0 hpfvmrgz qv66sw1b c1et5uql oi732d6d ik7dh3pa ht8s03o8 a8c37x1j fe6kdd0r mau55g9w c8b282yb keod5gw0 nxhoafnm aigsh9s9 d3f4x2em iv3no6db jq4qci2q a3bd9o3v b1v8xokw oo9gr5id\"\u003eI started taking shots fifteen minutes before the predicted time just to make sure, and I'm glad I did, because it started 15 minutes early.

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!\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Jeff Pfaller Photography","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47403732599010,"sku":null,"price":200.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0627\/6569\/5202\/products\/UpperYosemiteMoonbowNoWater.jpg?v=1656551139","url":"https:\/\/jeffpfaller.com\/products\/upper-yosemite-falls-moonbow-12-50-24-x-18-framed","provider":"Jeff Pfaller Photography","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
