Challenge: Rainbow (Advanced Editing V)
Collection: Challenges 2007
Camera: Sony DSC-W200
Location: Kuwait
Date: Oct 21, 2007
Date Uploaded: Oct 21, 2007

 The foyer of a movie theater at an upscale mall in Kuwait City. Big tall colorful lit pillars and a wonderfully reflective black floor (and black walls, black ceiling). Shot handheld with the Sony P&S. Doesn't have all the colors of the rainbow in this shot, but couldn't get wide enough to get all the pillars (they did indeed cover the gamut.)

Wow what an interesting place to visit. I love how the reflection reaches into the floor and then catches some more of the color. A very cool photo here.

I gave this a 9... I thought it was fantastic. As a lot of the high-placing entries show, things don't have to be in a rainbow arc to be "rainbow". I actually looked very closely and you can see purple down at the bottom so it really does cover all the colors as far as I'm concerned.

Terrific architecture piece. Those colors really zing. Feels almost phallic in a way...

Well the colours of the rainbow are probably all here but it's a push for the challenge description. Amazing lobby though and the composition is strong.

I like the vertical lines in your image and the man on the bench on the right. The light is maybe just a little bbit strong in the middle pillar, but a good image overall - to me.

cool, but doesn't really scream "RAINBOW" to me... :(

Unusual location, well done for finding it. This image does not say 'rainbow' in any way to me. Although it shows me a large space, I can't really tell where you want me to focus my attention. The man in the blue/white shirt to the right is quite prominent, the staff (?) at the back also draw my eye, but neither of those are what I think you want me to 'see'.

If it was the orange colum and reflection that you were wanting to present then I think cropping other distractions where possible would have been best.

Nice out of the box entry - i really like the strong vertical lines in this one - the placement of the man in the lower right to set the size component and the 'double rainbow' created by the cool light.
