Hi all,
this morning I finally succeeded in photographing a good fog bow, see
photo
below. Here in New Mexico (USA) fog is quite uncommon, as this is a
desert
climate and there is very little humidity. Also, as you all will know,
photographing a good fogbow from the ground proves difficult anyway!
I was a bit late, furiously trying to get a good vantage point without
powerlines or car dealers in my view. Therefore the fog had almost
dissipated by the time I took this picture, which you can see in the
picture - the bow appears in almost clear blue sky! The first
supernumerary bow inside the main bow is also barely visible.
I had less than a minute to photograph this. Hopefully tomorrow I can try
again earlier, if there is some fog.
Photo was taken in Socorro, NM, using Nikon D100 with 18mm lens and
circular polarizing filter.
Harald
