Thanks John. The rainbow was sheer good luck. I turned and saw it and snapped. By teh time I'd opened up my tripod for another go, it had vanished!

#1, Have you tried cropping off the top 1/4. Just noticed it as I scrolled down to see #2.

IMHO these are much better shots than the ones in your other thread, Ted. I like them. Though I agree with Barrie about the crop on the first (though it means you lose the wisp of cloud, which is nice). And I'd crop from the bottom in #2 (at the very least to where the reflection of the pier starts). I'd also try to lift the shadows a bit. BTW, the noise - I assume that's what it is - in the top left is a bit extreme.

Actually, looking at #1 again - I'd also try cropping from the bottom too, to see which works best - that way you'd get to keep the cloud and all the woods behind.

I like both of these. The autumn colours in the first, and the fantastic rainbow in the second! Nice work

Lovely autumn colours Father, and the rainbow is a great capture too.

Thanks guys. I'll try those crops, but I do like the wisp of cloud and the more muted colours on the hill behind.

Love the first one.
I can't help feeling I want to see more detail in the jetty and tree line in the rainbow shot, but it's a stunning rainbow shot none the less.

I'm going to have a tweak with the levels and see if I can bring anything else out. But it was a one shot moment, so I couldn't play.
