Out of Focus. Blotchy. Dirty. Muddy.

Posthumous Blue Ribbon.

Very neat capture, should have been straitened or cropped above the post or tree in the bottom right corner, nice colors, 6.

I can only see 1 rainbow, but i'll give you the benefit of the doubt.

The raindrops on the lens are unfortunate. I'm not sure what the "six cadets" and largely empty foreground add to the image; I might have tried a crop on the sky and double rainbow only. The colours in the rainbow also seem a little dull.

I like the moody tones in this and the colours in the rainbow but i think there is too much wasted foreground.

Tilted, raindrops and element in top right corner are all distracting to me. Lighting is good though.

The rain drops ing the upper left hand corner is a little distracting

it might have been a little brighter.

Great capture, but the picture is very dull looking and you can see the water on your lens.

It's clearly a snapshot--totally unplanned. You probably had this sitting around somewhere and noticed that it happened to fit the description of "Even". Still, I like the retro feel of it. I'll give it a 3.

Always nice to catch one of these double rainbows! I might have cropped this differently to take out the hydrant, which at first looked similar to the silhouettes of the people, or else to crop off a bit of the top where there is no rainbow, but raindrops on your window.

It was a good attempt, but it all seems a little fuzzy.

This photograph is strong because most of the picture is brown and dull but the double rainbows, which are somewhat rare, (atleast to me).

pic seems alittle washed out and also there is water drops on the lens

the pciture seems to be significantly tilted to the right. I can see how you struggled to get the lighting balanced between the real bright sky and the dark tones at the bottom.
