This image almost didnt happen. I WENT to Oregon to shoot this specific rock. This was where I wanted to go and what I wanted to shoot. This is typically a sunset shot.... but the evening we arrived, we were socked in. I usually to to get SOMETHING, but it was just hideously ugly! So I went to dinner and to bed.
My wife wakes me up- Dave, there's Blue Sky! So I hike down to the beach, and it looks pretty nice! It is misting slightly, with bold clouds in the background. THEN the sun pops up and the rainbow pops up! I race around trying to get a few angles, and then I fall back to this framing, and that's when I see the double rainbow.
So its NOT the normal, sunset shot most people shoot here.... so don't give up, shoot what you get!
This is a re-edit of an earlier image.

It stunned me, too, when it happened. My wife and I just sat there shaking our heads it was quite moving.
