Rainbow Promise

Rainbow Promise

A friend and I road tripped through central South Dakota a few summers ago and got to chase this rainbow for about an hour down Highway 14. I pulled over to take this picture of the bow over a ripened wheat field with drops of rainwater still glistening on the points of the barbed wire fence.

    Ooooh I love a good fence post and barbed wire! Nice bands of contrasting colour again along with a terrific narrow depth of field. The barbed wire really pulls your eye across the image and the rainbow in the backgraound is just dreamy. Nice one!

    its been said, i’ll say it again.. trhe colours are stunning but i think without the composition its just fields and sky.. the framing around the fencing and the barbed wire in the foreground, against those vivid colours.. just awesome.

    G’day Dawn,

    This has been very well seen and extremely well photographed with a great exposure, very good use of depth of field, a good strong composition taking full advantage of the post, wire, striations across the field and the subtle bend of the rainbows. I like that the post is on our right as the eye comes into and across the scene then is stopped from wandering off by the strong vertical of the post. That wire form is a great touch.
    It is a shame the water drops are not clearly visible but you can’t have everything.
    The light is fabulous, the contrast very pleasing and the colours just wonderful.
    Great work that girl!
