This lighting effect showed up for like, two minutes tops; I was extremely lucky to have my camera on a tripod pointing at the falls when it happened.
This will probably be my favorite photo of the year. This was right around sunset, so Firefall was going on over at horsetail falls and hundreds of people clumped together to see it; meanwhile it was me, my mom, and maybe one other person at this waterfall, and I think I was the only one to actually see this effect. And just dumb luck that I had my camera setup to photograph the waterfall.
