Mistbow

After weeks of rain and grey wet weather, we finally had a beautiful warm sunny day.  I drove over to the Falls yesterday evening to check them out; with all the rain we've had I knew they would be roaring.  I got there just at the right time of the evening--the sun was at the right angle in the sky, making this beautiful mistbow at the base of the Falls.  I would've loved to have gotten a shot or two from the lookout area at the base, but it and the hiking trail are closed for a major reconfiguration.  Drat.  Still gorgeous from any angle, though, and look at that blue sky!!

Oh wow! I bet that was so uplifting to get out with your camera and see such a glorious sight! I think that was a special rainbow just for you. ;)
