I may have a sweet tooth but have you?
This can be an obvious subject or a notso obvious subject, up to you.
Good luck and have fun.

I took a picture of a rainbow yesterday. I was sitting in my office, and it had been raining hard. I looked out of the window, and the sun had just come out. Idly, I thought, 'I wonder if there's a rainbow', so I looked outside and my jaw dropped as I saw the brightest bow I've seen for years.

I rushed for the camera, and although I caught it Ok, the view was just looking down the street, so no particular composition of note.

However, the question did occur to me, can rainbows be done effectively in black and white?

I know I think I might gain a few pounds just looking at all the entrants at the end.

Well now, there's a challenge!
I see no reason why not at all, with effective use of selection, hue and saturation, curves adjustment with a few Lilly tweeks here an' there.
I shall keep my shutter release at the ready for the next opportunity and 'ave a go'

By the way, the problem with the finish time of the competition has been corrected, so this one should finish on schedule at Midnight on Sunday.
Best regards, John
