Double Bow

Posted by Tracey (White Hall, United States) on 18 February 2008 in Landscape & Rural and Portfolio.

One of the only times I have seen a double rainbow. This goes with the ohter rainbow picture I posted last week.

I am working on a project with my kids and need your help. If you live in the United States, please check out this link to my postcrossing blog for details (look in the sidebar under 50 States Challenge):

Chris from South Jersey, United States

very pretty - the colors are great. Did you do any processing to bring out the rainbow?

18 Feb 2008 8:07am

@Chris: Yes, I did. I boosted contrast to increase the difference between the dark and light areas and I increased the saturation a bit. I also sharpened for web. No secrets! It really was that vibrant and beautiful!
