:-) Interesting title and interesting colors. I have seen Texas storms and can believe that this may well be as it appeared.
Technically the shot is fine, it meets the challenge and the composition is OK. The comments from the voters are interesting. There were a lot of similar entries, well why not it's a good choice for the challenge, but you would need to rise above the rest to really score well. The rainbow is probably the key. On my screen it barely shows and it is a shame that is could not have been more prominent. Perhaps a polarizing filter may have helped in this case to boost the saturation.
Overall nice work and creative title, but it doesn't have the WOW factore to hit the voters between the eyes.
Hope to see more of your work in the coming months.
well, it's cool that there's a rainbow there, but the subject isn't really that interesting and the colors are very strange. I guess you did that on purpose, or it actually looked kinda like that. I'm not buying the martian story though, not a believer :-p
