Hey folks,

took this photo last tuesday near my hometown.
Converted from raw, some curves and colour changes.

Nice shot kex, I like the way you have composed/cropped the pic so thatthe rainbowtrails offinto the left top corner !!, looks like a type of soft colorfullcomet landing on earth.

Kex,

That's an excellent capture of the rainbow.

Have you cropped this at all? It's just that the building is cut in half at the moment. I'd prefer a crop with the whole building in, or if you didn't get it in frame then perhaps a crop to take it out completely.

thank you both for the nice comments!

the picture was taken like shown. I just changed curves and colours a little bit and resized it.

I agree about the building peripatetic and I decided to clone it out instead of cropping, so I didn't loose any green in the bottom, which I personally like.

Kex, I think that's much better.

The curve of the green leads the eye nicely to the rainbow. Looks really good now.

Great shot. I do feel it is a bit hazzy though. Try an unsharp mask in Photoshop at anamount of 20 andradius of 100

thanks for the nice comments and thank you for your tip, hooba. I applied the unsharp mask with your settings and updated the photo. (see above) looks better now.
