Waterfalls at Washburn Point

Went up to Washburn Point to hopefully shoot the rising Moon. Since I got there early, I milled around looking for photo ops. I recently shot Nevada and Vernal Falls from Glacier Point so I didn’t plan on shooting them again. As I was sitting in the car resting I could see a “rainbow” starting to form in the base of Nevada Falls. I quickly grabbed my camera and started shooting. Had some interesting patches of light on Liberty Cap and Nevada Falls later, so why not…lol!
