I like Mary’s steam train and Mike’s shopping centre – just having one person visible makes the shot for me.
Like Ian’s Reading Station and Nigel’s Desert road, what a sense of the open road from down on the ground.…
Keep coming back to Brenda’s stained glass, like the pattern on the wall. Also enjoy Mary’s Cocktail trios, look delicious,…
Thanks for kind comments on my Crystal Triptych. I created this out of many layers in Photoshop, trying diptyches and…
My favourites, Mary’s flower for subtle colour the relaxed feel and Julie’s for the bright colours and clarity.
Well done to everyone who captured real rainbows, and also for the creative alternatives. Top marks to Ian’s entry, what a great idea.
In case anyone is interested in how I made the twirled picture, see https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=J8T3_Ew0wqU&feature=youtu.be&fbclid=IwAR2rM51zjq4KBUSGc_hS6O-iZ-niaZTxYYrk1bTut-HjkQiYRmA-mP0Rm30. Endless hours of fun. 🙂
Another great set of photos. I like David’s and Tony’s for the great locations, and Ian’s flowers for their originality. I must say I’m surprised no-one opted for the “thanks NHS” rainbows!
Ians image really stands out, a clever idea. I also like Brendas and Davids rainbow.
Thanks Sharon, June, and Mary! 😀 It didn’t take that long, finding the right colour plants and then selecting the 7 (from the 50 or so I took) best photos to use took the most time. I’ve got presets stored in Lightroom, so it only took a couple of mouse clicks to get all 7 images ready for slicing and composition in Photoshop.
The 7 plants are: Red – Crocosmia, Orange – Day Lily, Yellow – Dahlia, Green – Rosemary, Blue – Agapanthus, Indigo – Buddleia, and Violet – Purple Loose Strife.
I particularly like Bob’s, Julie’s, June’s, and Mary’s for their creativity and different take on the subject. My favourite “traditional” rainbow is Brenda’s, but enjoyed seeing all of them. 🌈 🌈🌈🌈😊
Thanks Sharon. A lovely display of rainbows – and rainbow colours. Well done everyone. My favourite this week for its originality is Ian’s 7 colour stitched images of the flowers in his garden. As for real rainbows – David’s Rainbow over Signal hill looks great, and I like Tony’s Rainbow in Fowey Harbour.
A lovely colourful collection. Enjoying the colourful double rainbows of Nagui’s and Nigel’s images. Julie’s twirls inspired me (on Flickr) as I had forgotten to enter. Bob’s rainbow flowers drew me in, liked the texture too. Especially liked Ian’s professional looking image of all the 7 garden rainbow colours too, looks like it took a while to put together!
Loved Mary’s tulips, just because I love good flower photos. Also Ian’s for the same reason, but also because he has the colours, and the order he puts them in, exactly right.
Julie’s twirls v interesting too.
