Details:
This captures rainbows off the bow! These unique double rainbows are created by the bright LED searchlights of the Hurtigruten ship m/s Nordkapp as it exited the narrow Trollfjorden fjord, a popular side trip on the coastal cruise in Norway. Heavy rain created the rainbows in each searchlight beam, and each is a double bow closely spaced and with the colour order reversed from inner to outer bow. The dark Alexander's Band between the bows is especially pronounced. These are two exposures, one a short 1/6-second shot, and the other at longer 0.6-second exposure, both at f/2 with the Nikkor 20mm lens and Nikon Z6III at ISO 1600. Taken from the forward section of Deck 5 above the bow. Taken about 5 pm local time on November 15, 2024.
