On Monday night, I shared the story and first image from my wild race to capture the incredible double rainbow that took shape at sunset over Marblehead.  

[LINK] As I mentioned, I had driven to Bass Rock Lane as it was the closest spot to the house offering unobstructed views of the water.  Shortly after capturing the image of a double rainbow that I shared immediately after coming home, I turned the camera to the portrait/vertical orientation and fired off 6 shots in the hopes of capturing the full double rainbow.

While the earlier shot required little in the way of post-processing, this image was a different story.  I spent several hours Wednesday stitching the six images together and selectively adjusting contrast and highlights in the hopes of bringing the incredibly beauty of the full double rainbow to life.  I hope no one is tired of this yet but I am happy to show you the end result of my work – the full double rainbow over Ram’s Island as seen from Bass Rock Lane.

*note – the final image is over 2 gigabytes in file size.  It would print at its native resolution to a size of nearly 2′ x 4′ and would easily go to 4′ x 8′ and beyond with little (if any) loss in the fine details.
