Title: Rainbow
Post by: Barbarian on September 01, 2010, 09:43:20 PM
This was by far the brightest, most colorful rainbow I've ever seen.   The picture doesn't do it justice.   It was almost blindingly brilliant.

Wow!  I don't think I've ever seen the complete arc of a rainbow.

What a wonderful promise they remind us of.  despite the swirling clouds the promise is there.

Beautiful rainbow.  Wonderful double arc!

It was perfect.   The storm had just passed, and was moving directly east.   The sun was setting directly behind me.   An amazing display.  Never saw anything to compare to it.

The picture is a stitch, of course; the bow was much wider than this suggests.

You're getting really expert at stitching - I couldn't find any evidence of it!

Looks brilliant in the 2nd posted but both a nice completed rainbow pano...

I'm curious-do you just do one pan or do you go back for a 2nd or 3rd row? Using a rail?

Yes, multiple rows.  Hand-held.   ICE does a very good job, so long as you get complete coverage with overlap in each shot.
