Black&White was definitely the right choice. The title's great, and it really contributes a lot to the picture. It's the first 10 i'm giving in this challenge!
The unfortunate results of either a very low res camera (<2MPx) or incorrect downsampling techniques, but the sky moire and the excessive sharpening in the trees keeps this from scoring high at all on the technical side. And given the fact that these technical faults pull the rainbow out of the shot completely, I'm at a loss to rank it conceptually, either. A regretable 1.
Cool photo. Hobby, passion maybe...habit no. The jagged phone line in the top left corner should have been cropped out. I'm feeling like the sky and the trees in the background are a bit too dark but I do like the contrast of the white beech tree against the darker trees and the sky.
Lost a little bit for the wire in the upper left corner, but I really like the overall mood of this image. The black and white is an interesting medium for expressing a rainbow.
Without the title I wouldn't associate this with a habit. I love the photo though, not many people would be brave enough to use b&w for a rainbow shot... good job.
Wow....I can relate to this picture. At first I was going to lecture you on your choice of using B&W here, but then I got it...or at least I think I did. LOL For me, it means that the rainbow that you seek, is more or less unattainable, therefore, it may as well BE in black and white for all the good it does. Am I close? Anyway, you get a 9 for making me think so hard! :)
