Tricks To Good Moonbow Photography

By Bernice Terry


If one is hot and heavy in photography, then one of the things that he should aim for would be to get a clear photo of a beautiful moonbow or a moon rainbow. Now this kind of craft is called moonbow photography and takes a lot of preparation and attention to details. Now if one is interested in this particular field, then here are a few tricks that may help.

Now the first thing to take note of is when the occurrence would actually appear. Now if one would want to catch it, he has to make sure to monitor the moon for its actions. Usually, moon rainbows will appear when there is a very bright and full moon and when the moon is very low in the night sky.

Now if one already has done his research and knows when to find the moon rainbow, then he must decide where he can shoot. The best place to be able to get a nice view would be somewhere on higher ground like a waterfall or at the top of a rock. Also, observe the exact location of the moon and make sure to point the camera where the moon is.

After doing some preparations on how to get the lunar bow, then the next thing to do would be to gather all of the equipment. Now one thing that the photographer should never do would be to bring out the flash. The flash may be useful in making the picture brighter but it will also destroy the light of the moonbow and will not show in the picture.

Now as for the equipment, obviously one will be needing to bring his camera. One other thing that he must never forget to bring would be his tripod because he will be waiting a very long time for the bow to appear. He will need to keep the camera still because if the camera is shaky, then he will not be able to capture the lunar bow nicely.

Now one thing that the photographer must definitely watch out for would definitely be the fog and the mist since he will be atop a rock or somewhere near a waterfall. Because of the mist, the lens of the camera might become blurred which will affect the picture. So always bring something that will block off the mist.

Another thing that will be of very big help would be a wide angle lens. A lens that can capture a big chunk of the scenery is very useful because one does not know where the bow would pop out. At least by doing this, he will be able to know where he can point the camera to get the lunar bow.

So if one is interested in doing some moonbow photography, then here are a few very useful tips. In order to capture this very rare occurrence, one must do his homework about where and how to find it. Also, one must need to pay close attention to details so that he can be able to capture it on film.
