Under the Rainbowby
BrianRComment: I feel that a good number of the voters are taken by the first impact of a photo when they cast their judgment. I do not see anything wrong with that if it was basic or even advanced editing.
However in expert editing the tools allow changes that can produces a very unreal picture, this photo is an example of such processing; and its initial impact may in fact grade it high, so I am admitting to record what I think of the photo here.
While the two rainbows have the same arch (curvature) which is strange, because this means they are on one 2-D plane; they have reversed gradation of rainbow colors.
The sky under the inner rainbow is darker and with more thin clouds than the sky area contained between the two rainbows as if the two areas are slices of two different things. The clouds often break (end) and the edge of some parts of the rainbows as if they were dividing lines not a natural mix of the nature.
But one of the most annoying things in the photo is the bright (very bright) house roof; a big quantity of light illuminating only the roof with no clear source for it; or how it is lighting only the roof; If it was the sun, which should be there to create a rainbow(s) then where is the tree's shadow; also how could there be a rainbow with so little of thin clouds.
I love expert editing but not to the extend of making nature look unreal because we have editing tools.
