A double-bow down the street from my home.

Rotated, cropped, curves, levels, a little selective colour play to 'pop' the arco-iris. Neat Imaged aggresively, et voila.

Might be too pedestrian for the DPC, considering there's probably an Icelander or two entered in this one...but I was missing my update button last week. DPC is damn addictive.

post-

Very nice, my 2nd highest. Thanks for all the really great comments. Plus, I can now brag that I outscored Judi and Larus in a challenge. Take that!

Nice the way the rainbow continues into the blue blue sky; but for me the intrigue is really at the bottom. Congrats.

This took me a little while to "get" it, but it is such a strong composition and is so beautiful that I just kept staring...I love the positioning of the horizon and the deep blue sky providing balance. Great job. PS, I voted a 9 on this a couple of days ago and I'm just now commenting....

Very nice..the red seems a bit bright though. Takes away from the rest of the colors.

A double rainbow - hope it brings you luck!

The rainbows stand out very well indeed - I think overall there is a slight lack of sharpness (being picky here) which might be caused by focusing on the rainbow.

A double rainbow - Very cool stuff! I am not sure about the cropping however. The blue sky at the top seems to take up too much space - the action is where the rainbow is and I would like to see more of it

I feel there should be less sky in this picture. I want to point the camera down a bit to see the bottom of the rainbows.
