 "Whenever the rainbow appears in the clouds, I will see it and remember the everlasting covenant between God and all living creatures of every kind on the earth." GEN 9:16

I followed a storm for a time right before sunset, took some pretty good shots of clouds and reflections in a slough on the flats, as the lighting was really nice. Then I saw a rainbow off in the distance and decided to head in that direction. The area where this shot was taken is called, of all things, Lords Hill and it is a bit south east of Snohomish Washington.

Boosted the shadows in Adobe Raw converter to +40, then converted to JPEG. Adjustment layer of Hue/Saturation, cloned a couple of dust spots, cropped, resized, added boarder, saved for web.

Praying as always that this does well...

Michael! This is so amazing! It should be on the front page. And thank you for the reminder of God's covenant with His people! What a promise!

Double rainbow is nice and this shot is as well, wish the side of the house wasn´t so badly blown though but nothing that is destroying the shot though.

love the lighting on this entry - just wish the barn wasn't blown out. the grasses in front are perfectly exposed and the sky and rainbows are really well composed. I just wish you would have placed the horizon a little higher in the frame so it is more at the third rather than down about 20%. I realize you were trying to put the barn at the intersection of the thirds, but the horizon is such a large component of the lines in this image - I think it could have been a little higher. Still - I like it a lot 7
