Hi All,
Hi Alexandra!
I am learning about HDR panoramas and I have made some basic single row panoramas using an iPod touch or my Canon dSLR. I took this one on a iPod touch 6Gen I think, merging 5 images. Recently, I did a test panorama using the nodal point on a camera Canon 7D and Samyang 14mm lens and did a perfect stitch !! in PanoramaMaker Pro 3.5 (trial version). Apparently HDR panoramas is the hardest thing to do in photography (normal photography) ! with a maximum EV range of 24. Our eyes have an EV of 8. Some cameras have EV of 8 to 12, may 14 ? (EV is exposure value, which is a naturally logarithmic scale of intensity).
Here is the rainbow (double) on June 13, 2020 near my home. I hope you like it.

Re: Panorama of double Rainbow !!!
That's a really fantastic double rainbow you have the image so flat, well done! I have tried to image rainbows before and get distorted rubbish, it is so frustrating as they are always too wide for the camera lens. This is perfect!!

Re: Panorama of double Rainbow !!!
Hi Alexandra,
Thanks for the info about rainbows. I had no idea they were so complicated !
Processing rainbows to bring out the colours and lines ? I have no idea how to do that.
I am not sure about Alexanders dark band in my image, I will have to take a closer look.
Maybe another forum entirely for rainbows !? rainbowschatforum.com !
