    Hey Marc..

    Very nice captures... I am loving #3, there is a lot of color in that one. The others are good too, but the trees and river up front dominate the composition some, although, not as much in #2, so if you go with one of those, I would go with #2, but my fav is #3..

    I sure like the double rainbow. #2 is a little stronger color, so I'd go with that one.

    I like #1 a lot. It's a lot more appealing to me. I think #2 is a bit too dark. I would try to reduce the noise in the sky.

    At first I thought #3 but the more I look at them I think I like #1 best. I think the color and detail in the trees looks great something about it transports me there more than the others.

    Have to agree with the others about #1. The details in the trees look really good and the double rainbow was a great catch. Song title is perfect.

    I would try applying an unsharp mask to the image with these settings: 20/50/0 to boost the contrast just a little. mwink.gif

    :uhoh One small nit, though, and this is where the music nerd in me come out: Doris Day recorded "Somewhere Over the Rainbow" but she was not the artist who composed it. The artist who composed the melody was Harold Arlen and the gentleman who wrote the lyrics was Edgar Harburg.

    OK. Music nerd goes back into hiding now. :hide rolleyes1.gif

    I'm also a fan of #1 - I think the grey/cloudy sky is more 'authentic' - both for the circumstances of rainbows and the song... and I like the warmth in that image more than the cool blue sky.
