Rainbow at the lighthouse
Posted By: simonkit, 10-09-2008, 10:47 AM

Had a bit of luck yesterday..as the weather was pretty good I drove to Penmon Point on Anglesey hoping to get another couple of shots, a favourite spot of mine..a small rain shower passed over the lighthouse & left a nice little rainbow behind, here's the shot all C&C appreciated

Wow Simon, it looks like a slide leading down from the top of the lighthouse. Great colour in that shot.

(I replied on DPR, but I'll do so again here. This image deserves it)

Wow, very nice shot !

I really like "reflection in the water"-type shots, but in this particular case I'm wondering if a tighter framing wouldn't have worked even better.

Really good capture. It seems to be just a touch over-saturated to my eyes, but still looks excellent.

I agree and no C&C here other than frame it!

Thanks for the comments everyone..

one of those "right time.right place" shots for sure, in the last 10yrs since I've been visiting Penmon I've never seen a rainbow, probably not see one again for the next 10 so glad I managed to catch it
