Photographer and YouTube time-lapse sensation Noah Kalina was able to capture a beautiful photograph of the Hurricane Sandy rainbow the day after the devastating storm hit New York City late on Monday night October 29th, 2012.
With this photo comes a lot of apprehension; mainly due to the increasing amount of counterfeit photographs being used during the storm. However, as unreal as this photo does look, it is in fact a real photograph of a rainbow hovering over downtown Manhattan.
This photograph seems too good to be true, but it is comforting to see such a beautiful display after such a destructive storm.
Noah Kalina also happens to be the photographer who photographed a self-portrait of himself over several years and made an amazing time-lapse video from it.
