Rainbow over the Aspen - a photo on Flickriver

            Gunnison National Forest, Colorado -  September 2014

Velvia 50 4x5, 75mm Super Angulon
2 seconds at f22, polarizing filter and 2 stop soft GND filter

This was one of the highlights from my travels this autumn.  I found this spot a couple hours before sunset and figured I'd set up and wait for light.  I had the place all to myself, but It was mostly cloudy out so I didn't know what to expect.  After a while of waiting the sky started dumping rain on me, but I put on the rain gear and enjoyed the solitude.  Right as the rain was getting to its strongest, I noticed the sky brightening up so I had a glimmer of hope that something would happen.  Then suddenly a double rainbow appeared and stayed incredibly brilliant for almost 5 minutes!  I watched the light come and go on the aspens and found this to be the perfect time to take the shot.
