    I really like this photo, just find that the crop from top could be brought down a tad...It is looks really spacey....it would to me increase the depth by giving it a crop....and make that rainbow pop..

    AS far as theme, I can't really say...but your photo has beautiful lighting..
    You're only as good as your next photo....
    One day, I started writing, not knowing that I had chained myself for life to a noble but merciless master. When God hands you a gift, he also hands you a whip; and the whip is intended solely for self-flagellation...I'm here alone in my dark madness, all by myself with my deck of cards --- and, of course, the whip God gave me."

    I think this is a pretty strong entry. I would play around a bit with the cropping as Tentacion suggested a bit and see if it looks better to you. I'd definitely recommend putting it in though.

    Nice. Looks like Emerald Bay to me.

    I'd straighten out the horizon and crop it a bit. For my personal taste the black foreground is a little too heavy and could be cropped up a bit. Also, the left edge of the frame isn't really contributing much to the overall image and could be potentially cropped in a bit. You might end up with the horizon dead center in the middle which I think might work with this image by creating a feeling of the bay mirroring the rainbow.

    Thanks for all the tips guys.
    So this is what I'll do
    1. Crop it from top and remove the black foreground.
    Since I have RAW I can leave the shadows slider to low value so that the foreground is greener
    2. About the rainbow popping, I tried bumping up saturation and stuff, but am somehow unable to pop out just the rainbow.
    Looks like time to select is using a mask or something and try and make it pop? Any suggestions are appreciated!

    Oh the cropped version is so efficient. I love it. Nice and tidy. Strong entry, yes indeed.
