This was taken in Fairmont, WV while on the way to the store. Was so amazing to see how the rainbow and the storm was conflicting against one another. It was raining and then stopped to have the rainbow appear, shortly after it began raining again. It was the most beautiful thing i have ever seen. Was so amazing to see how the weather can change so easily and rapidly.

No don't delete it. It's still an interesting shot. You did what you could in the few minutes you had available. So what if it isn't as "perfect" as some others. I think we've all learned something from seeing it and reading others' opinions. I'm still glad you posted it.
Beautiful background colors but I dont find the forground very interesting. Maybe you should had given the tree a litle fill-in if you want it on the image at all. Dont know if this suits the challenge.
This would be much better without that ugly branch. I don't really see a storm, just a poorly exposed branch blocking what would be a lovely sky and rainbow. 4
Wow, what a great capture. I was going to suggest cropping out some of the top, but the more I look, the more I like it the way it is. (Reminds me of a Magritte painting, "The Empire of Lights."
I'm not sure I get what you meant for the challenge. Rainbows and storms don't compete or conflict. If there were no storm, there'd be no rainbow, it's more like a harmony of existence than a confliction. Know what I mean?
i don't understand use of titles. most people try to explain their image with them ( which is not necessarily a good idea). if, in fact your title is telling me that this photo is about the rainbow and storm then why is my view of them blocked by the big bare sillouette of the trree. if your title merely identifies and describes then I don't feel the need for an interpreter. very pretty image nonetheless
It's a stretch for me as a conflict, since it's more like harmony having a rainbow with a storm. It’s a shame you didn’t have a higher vantage point over the houses as I think it would have made for a better 'photo op'. I suspect that glass & program filters helped with the vibrant colors, which I like. All in all I enjoy your picture and appreciate the fact you did the best you could with what was presented to you at the time.
