    Simple, but well done. I just wish it was a lower ISO, or is that from compression?

    Re: Pot of Gold here!

    Thanks,

    the original is not that noisy and here is a new version with a different resizing done to try and prevent the artifacts.

    However, there is noise as it was taken early morning as the sun was coming over the horizon and into the light. f8; 1/100; ISO 50 on a canon powershot pro 1. I prefer to get the picture than miss an opportunity.:smilewinkgrin:

    Hope this new version comes out better.

    Wow Rodger, You have my luck. When you find the end of the rainbow, either it's the wrong end or someone else as beaten you to the gold. I agree with the others though this is beautiful.....

    Great framing, Roger. The slither of ground with the huge Rainbow curving up through the rest of the frame is well done. The noise was definetely an issue in a shot like this, but you have addressed that issue well enough. Good work.
