Skógafoss Rainbow Fall by jyokota

Skógafoss Rainbow Fall

A wonderful tour of southern Iceland, seeing beautiful waterfalls, gorgeous landscape all around, and glaciers. Here's one with a rainbow (and a double behind it).

Taffy's version, with a much more articulated waterfall here: http://365project.org/taffy/365/2017-03-19
Lesson learned from reading Taffy's exif file: faster shutter speed because on a waterfall like this, going for silky water isn't going to fare well anyway.
WOW, you got a double one!! Nice so nice!

Still, this is quite spectacular.

Great lights

Oh wow, two for the price of one, what Aussies call a 'twofer'. Lovely contrasts between the apparent softness of the waterfall and bright colours of the rainbows and the harsh monotone textures of the rocks.

Oh my...wish I were there. Wonderfully composed and lit
March 20th, 2017  
Were there two pots of gold too? This is simply just spectacular. FAV!
March 20th, 2017  
I like the wider view here
March 20th, 2017  
I'd agree with you there - silky water looks good in some photos but this waterfall has so much depth within itself!

Awesome picture and perspective.
March 20th, 2017  
Superb shot
March 20th, 2017  
incredibly beautiful! aces!
March 20th, 2017  
Great double rainbow! Notice how the second one is reversed...it can't be the same spectrum order as the first.
March 20th, 2017  
Beautiful double rainbow and blue sky!
March 20th, 2017  
Perfection
March 20th, 2017  
Exceptional photo :-)
March 20th, 2017  
That is just spectacular... fav
March 20th, 2017  
So amazing to get 2 rainbows!
March 20th, 2017  
Beautiful! Though, I've seen some long exposures of Skögafoss that are really amazing as well!
March 20th, 2017  
That's a stunner :) fav
March 20th, 2017  
This is incredible.
March 20th, 2017  
Terrific capture :)
March 20th, 2017  
Wow. This is amazing.
March 20th, 2017  
I would think Iceland would be a fabulous place to visit though a little on the cool side if their weather is anything like ours. This would be a great shot to have in anyone's project.
March 20th, 2017  
Nice - I think the reason that this has a very different feel is that this is a picture of the rainbow whereas Taffy's is a picture of the waterfall @taffy
March 20th, 2017  
Beautiful!
March 20th, 2017  
Wow this is stunning Junko!! So pleased to see the sun has come out for you all!! Fav!
March 20th, 2017

It's almost like a picture within a picture. Gorgeous.
March 20th, 2017  
Just perfect. Love it
March 20th, 2017  
This is very beautiful! @mikegifford I would not have noticed the rainbow colors being reversed, thank you!
March 20th, 2017  
Magnificent
March 20th, 2017  
Fantastic

Wonderful image, great rainbow, I shot this waterfall with long exposure early in the morning and it gave a great effect. Shooting midday a fast shutterspeed is probably the best. Did you climb up to the viewpoint?
March 20th, 2017  
I love your double rainbow and that you have the full one. To me, there is sufficient definition in the waterfall, so it's the best for both!
March 20th, 2017  
Your pov shows the scale and power of the waterfall and the double rainbow is superb.
March 20th, 2017  
Double rainbow! Yes!!!
March 20th, 2017  
A double rainbow!! Very cool - what a blue, blue sky, too!
March 21st, 2017  
sweet capture! wow! fav
March 21st, 2017  
Beautiful scene, love the double rainbow
March 21st, 2017  
Wow Junko, amazing scenery.
March 21st, 2017  
What a fabulous rainbow - Fav
March 21st, 2017

March 22nd, 2017  
Breathtakingly beautiful! And Yes! I see the double!

Thank you all for your lovely comments and favs! When Taffy said, "You're TT 17" I had no clue what code she was using and what she meant. What a thrill, and so nice to share our Iceland trip with all of you. It's truly a photographer's paradise, and if you come, you must travel with our guide, Pall. He's simply the best.
