This was early one spring morning. I went to a lake where cherry blossoms were in bloom. It was raining at night, and at sunrise the rain stopped and there was fog. While I was photographing the scenery, a rainbow appeared overhead. I hurriedly changed lenses to find the right composition and took the picture. Here is a shot of the spring cherry trees and the two miraculous rainbow arches! I took a 14mm shot, but it didn't fit, so I took multiple shots and composited them into a panorama.
