Description I did some new post processing on this photograph. The older version is a bit colourless and lacks of contrast. Here it is for comparison: [link]

Thanks to Martin "struller" Amm for giving advice on post processing methods!
Have a look at the old one and tell me what you think about the post processing.
Regards


20/04/2009 - I'd like to thank all of you very much for all your great comments and favs. Never thought to get a DD at all. Thanks a lot for picking this one.
Best regards

16/10/2009 - Dust spots removed Minor change, but I clicked away the check mark by accident. Sorry.

Lovely! I have lived in a desert city (Dubai) for my entire life of 25 years, and travelling was also limited to the Middle East region and here 'Rainbow' is a fantasy.. I always read about it in my school books and thought, na.. that ain't natural, gotta be some people's imagination at work.. WILD IMAGINATION!

Was recently on a business trip to Cape Town, and when I saw it with my own eyes (for the first time ever), I was like WOW!

And this image is like.. WOW!!!!!

my friend has a photo of a rainbow from when he went ballooning, and its a full circle rainbow, because he was up so high!

Definitely much better after post-processing. I love lively colours and this one really makes me feel nice. Contrast and saturation are the key to photographs like this, I think.
