Bridal Veil Falls in May. The rainbows form mid afternoon and slowly climb up the water fall till dark. I had zip-loc baggies taped all over my camera. My 17 to 35 f2.8 still squeals when auto focusing from it's day in the watery mist.

No selective adjustments on this photo. Just global.

A lovely photo. This is such a wonderful spot, and your rainbow is brighter than the day we were there. I didn't know about the rainbow going up as the day progresses, cool little fact.

I love the rainbow at the bottom of the image. Usually rainbows are at the top.

Here is a shot from later in the day and from the parking lot.

We didn't have near as good a rainbow the times I've been there. Also, we usually don't go back to those falls later on, since its been years since I've stayed int the valley. Usually we stay south of the park and so we drive in.
