Who the heck ever thought of photographing a rainbow in black and white! But it WORKS! It looks as though it's injecting itself into the ominous cloud. Sunshine is right around the corner. #1591046

Hey Michelle, Thanks for taking the time to look at my photograph. Who the heck ever....that was my thought too when I decided to convert it to black and white. A few friends and I were returning from a photography outing an we saw this rainbow...it was the most perfect complete rainbow i'd ever seen. By the time we got ourselves and our cameras out of the car, half the rainbow disappeared. I did the conversion in Lightroom and worked with the color sliders to create the distinct tones in the rainbow. I'm very HAPPY to hear that you think it works! #11159651
