Under the Rainbow

Gallery: LandscapePosted January 3, 2011121 views9 comments

So I've finally found the gold at the end of the Rainbow, it's just not the gold you'd expect, but for the photographer in me this was the best result!

Happy New Year, best wishes and ultimate light in 2011 for everyone!

Talk about being in the right spot at the right time! I like the contrast between the brooding sky and uplifting golden light and collies in the foreground.

Great light Jorne, and perfect timing. The rainbow looks like it is glowing off my screen.

I think it could use a little noise reduction in the grey clouds but that could just be from sharpening them too, an easy fix. Cheers

Jorne,

The weekly challenge is rainbows and this definitely belongs in that category. I would enter this photo in that gallery as well. It is a magnificent picture with an interesting BG.

And your penance for failing to memorize the Weekly Themes for the entire year is that you must enter a photo in the upcoming challenge: "Siberian Landscapes shot at 40 below"

Beautiful rainbow and I also like the light in the foreground. Maybe I'd tone it down a little.

Thanks for the comments!

Rick: thanks for pointing out the WC!

Stan: So an all white shot will do? I'll just claim it's from siberia!

Amazing display of light and color, Jorne! The composition seems a bit heavy on the left side with that ridge in the back, but I guess the rainbow is a good enough excuse.
