Shoshone Falls double rainbow, July 1, 2023

 While waiting for the night to fall to look for moonbows in Shoshone Falls, we spent the afternoon getting photos of the falls during the day, including seeing this double rainbow in the mist of the falls.

These falls are east of Twin Falls, Idaho and at this viewing, there was a good flow of water, thanks to releases from upstream dams on the Snake River.  This view is from the main viewing platform for the falls in Shoshone Falls Park.

Remember, it's not just a picture, it's a story.

McArthur Burney Falls and double rainbow

The centrerpiece of McArthur Burney Falls Memorial State Park in Northern California is Burney Falls.  The two main streams you see in the center of the photo is from Burney Creek, while the rest of the waterfalls you see here are from springs emerging from the cliff face.  Some 100 million gallons of water flow from this waterfall every day.  It creates quite a spectacle.

Since this cliff face is pretty much north-facing, it almost never gets direct sunlight, but the mist from the waterfall can catch the rays and produce rainbows during special times of the day.  Here Bob was able to capture a double rainbow in the mist.

Remember, it's not just a picture, it's a story.
