Moonbows?

I took this one from my house in Larne on Wednesday 3rd Jan. I noticed that I could see the Wolf Moon out the front whilst it was tipping down with rain, so I went to the back of the house and started shooting.

This is 8 secs at ISO 1600 f5.6, so hardly surprising that I couldn't actually see it!

That's a great shot! You can see the color yet the background is still black looking. I actually think this is a better shot than any other I've seen which just look like they were taken during the day.

Bart.

Am I right in saying that you took this shot in the off chance that there might be a moon bow invisible there to you but detectable by the camera?

Yes, that's right. However, this being the digital age, that wasn't the only shot

That's great, my eyes probably weren't deceiving me. I'll be lucky if I see another moonbow, but now I'll know what conditions are needed to make one possible.
