•  Comment - What an unusual phenomenon! I've never seen a lunar rainbow! But do you think you could reduce the noise at full size? -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 11:48, 17 July 2016 (UTC)
  • I tested it with more bad results. It is a long exposure night 10s ISO 3200 shoot! --Alchemist-hp (talk) 16:24, 17 July 2016 (UTC)
• Regretful  Oppose It is a very unusual thing to see and I would have been inclined to support it on that fact alone, but checking the Category:Moonbows it seems like it is possible to get pics with more light of moonbows from that location. Perhaps you need to be there at full moon at a time of the year when there is some residual blue in the sky even during night. This is one of the darkest pics in that category. For what it's worth, this pic looks better in larger format. Sorry. w.carter-Talk 17:19, 17 July 2016 (UTC)
  • It was at full moon and in the night. ;-) The other cat images are also visible with a part of sunlight!?! --Alchemist-hp (talk) 17:28, 17 July 2016 (UTC)
    • That was the residual light I was referring to. I know that full night pics are very, very hard to get visible. You sometimes have to have such long exposure that the stars become short lines, about a minute or so. w.carter-Talk 18:35, 17 July 2016 (UTC)
      • I wanted to take an image only by moonlight with one of the best cameras for that. --Alchemist-hp (talk) 18:38, 17 July 2016 (UTC)
•  Oppose Too dark and noisy. INeverCry 18:03, 17 July 2016 (UTC)
•  Support Night rainbow....--LivioAndronico ^(talk) 22:34, 17 July 2016 (UTC)
•  Support INeverCry is right - but so is Livio --Martin Falbisoner (talk) 05:46, 18 July 2016 (UTC)
•  Support Noisy... (even with the NR which smeared details, and Canon is definitely not one of the best camera for such pictures, look at the color blotches) and questionnable composition. But interesting phenomenon. - Benh (talk) 09:03, 18 July 2016 (UTC)
  •  Neutral changed my mind after looking at Category:Moonbows. It's underexposed in my opinion, even for a night shot. - Benh (talk) 09:07, 18 July 2016 (UTC)
•  Support yet, there is noise but its ok for FP. --Ralf Roleček 14:37, 18 July 2016 (UTC)
