    Double Rainbow

    heres a quick shot i got with my fujifilm point and shoot.
    i love the colors! there was a thunder and lightning storm and then the sun came out
    theres a second rainbow beside the big one if you look close you can see it!
    the sky was a dark blue like seen in this shot! it was an amazing scene!

    thanks alot polar! yeah it was very beautiful, the dark clouds with the sun and everything made it look very purple! it was really neat to see over the water.

    Re: Double Rainbow

    I really like the continuation of the rainbow's reflection across the water.

    Nicely done.

    I like the hypnotic colour. The undisturbing water delivers a sense of calmness.

    No critique required for this one, it is a winner.
    No, I DON'T need that.

    Re: Double Rainbow

    Nice capture. I think I've seen double rainbows before.. what about triples?

    It looks fine as is, but I wonder what it would have looked like with a barn, windmill or city building in the foreground instead of the water.

    Re: Double Rainbow

    Very nice, Rylan. I would crop just a bit off the bottom so the end of the grass line falls right into the lower right corner.
    The ultraviolet colors have a surreal feel about it.
    Good work

    I agree with Gary. Just a touch off of the bottom but a spendid image. Certainly worthy of printing.
