Title: Moonbows - Sept 16th Post by: martinastro on September 17, 2010, 12:08:14 am Caught this Moonbow tonight at 22.00 BST, primary and secondary arcs were visible, primary was easy with naked eye with subtle colour and quite impressive for such a weak moon phase, the arc was complete and visible for 5 min's, camera got drenched though in the precip.

Lovely composition in the second one with the stars in the background. I saw my first moonbow a few weeks back, its a strange and beautiful sight :)
