Later that morning, on my way out of the Park, a tourist asked me where the rainbow was coz he did not see a rainbow over the Falls! As if it should just permanently be there in the same position all day long for the tourist to see...

  • When shooting a famous landmark like the Victoria Falls it is extremely difficult to create unique and different shots. One early morning shoot I was fascinated by how the sunlight struck the spray of a small isolated trickle (it was the dry season). It created a rainbow, but not a traditional arc as we normally see it; instead it appeared as continuously moving 'flames'.

  • When shooting in rain (and in Botswana we don't get that chance too often, so I am no expert) there are basically two different approaches; one is to use a slow enough shutter speed to blur the rain drops, creating streaks, or two, to use a high shutter speed and freeze the rain drops. The first approach is the more common one. In this case, however, there was enough light due to the conditions, an incoming local storm shower in the late afternoon, resulting in a rainbow against a dark sky plus raindrops reflecting the sunlight. When a fleeting moment like that occurs you are desperate for a subject in the right place and simply have to be thankful for whatever you can find, even if it is not entirely as you had envisaged or dreamt of. Shooting in these conditions was not easy, but a few seconds later shooting was near impossible as it bucketed down..
