Hey all. I stepped outside this evening after a thunderstorm and found this outside in the distance. I didn't have a lens wide enough to catch the whole thing, and I was in the middle of a subdivision so I couldn't get anything else in the frames. I had to revert to my trusty kit lens and had to use a low aperture setting because it was sort of dark. It was also raining a little. But I did remember to grab my polarizer :thumbup: I didn't have a lot of time because I wanted to get as many shots as possible before it disappeared. There seemed to be a lot of noise in the originals and there is still some noise even after pp. Is this because of the low aperture I had to use? I had some at ISO 100 and some at 200. These are not cropped.
Anyway, these two I think came out the best. I never tried to take shots like this so I didn't know exactly the best settings to use. I'm accustomed to shooting for sharpness, but you can't really do that with a rainbow Also, I know these aren't really worthy of signatures or anything but it makes me feel better with my stuff being displayed everywhere (even though it could just be edited out) because I'm just funny like that. Let me know what YOU would have done to make these better. Thanks!
