An Unexpected Presence Photo

Photographer’s Note

"An Unexpected Presence"
......................................................

When evening falls, and returning to the warm city of Barrancabermeja, we are heading towards the city of Bucaramanga.

Mission accomplished within what we had planned for this day, speaking workforce.

Faced with us, in every curve of the road, we had a dark sky, harbinger of a strong downpour. We were not far from it, when it began to drop the first drops. To our backs, the faint rays of the sun in the twilight.

But the nature, to compensate for this climatic adversity, we had prepared a surprise. Majestically a nascent rainbow, unexpectedly made his presence.

Something wonderful and worthy of admiration. Stopping the truck, we stopped beside the track to watch the most splendid panorama, to go with our view birth and death through a perfect curve.

Do not hesitate to get my camera, which I tried to trap this beautiful moment. I was fascinated by the intensity of the rays and accompaniment that gave the rural environment.

I hope it will be full of pleasure,

John

Hi John,
Yes, it is full of pleasure! A very beautiful moment with this fantastic rainbow, and even the second one is very visible. Remarkable composition of image including this fence in a diagonal and that elegant tree.
Bravo! And thanks for sharing such a beauty!

Mi amiguito J.O!
Que suerte poder tener un arcoiris
"adornando" aun mas la bella vista!
Linda foto con una muy efectiva
composicion, pero de verdad que ese arcoiris
es el punto principal de atraccion.

A beautiful double rainbow! Very nice lighting and colors. A pretty scene. TFS

Hola John,

You already captured two of them mi amigo. The role of first rainbow is amazing because it works like a border between darkened part of sky too. Your creative way is noticeable for including dried tree and barrier in a shortly available duration. Congratulations. Have a nice weekend.

Saludos cordiales,

Ertugrul

La verdad amigo John que es una magnifica fotografía, dos preciosos arcoiris, uno por supuesto en todo su esplendor el otro mas débil pero visible. Tu punto de vista es muy bueno así como los colores y como has encuadrado tu foto. El área del campo con su verdor es muy bien visto también. La presencia de la cerca le da una buena profundidad a tu composición.
Un fuerte abrazo.

really this physical phenomenon is an eye catcher after the rain.I like the perspective that created from the fence,as the light that falls in the whole scene and make it morre attractive.Well done.

Have a nice Sunday,Danos

Hola John!!

Qué grata esta "inesperada presencia", fuiste muy afortunado...
Preciosa imagen con los dos arcos y ese campo precioso a pesar de las condiciones de luz, una imagen muy bonita encuadrada de forma muy elegante.
Felicidades.
Manuel.

Hola John,
has captado un efecto poco habitual, el arco iris doble, que se da en situaciones muy concretas.
Me gusta la sensación que nos ofrece, al aparecer después de la tormenta, y que es presagio de una mejoría en el tiempo.
Tu foto los ha captado perfectamente sobre un bonito paisaje y con un cielo aún gris oscuro, en una toma con excelente colorido y una luminosidad especialmente atractiva.
Buen trabajo.
Un abrazo,
Josep

Hola mi buen amigo,

Bonito instante, siempre que sale el arco iris el momento que se vive es único e irrepetible, hace poco pude disfrutar de uno inmenso y completo, pero conducía y como podrás entender me era imposible capturarlo jeje.

La imagen posee una buena composición y transmite la magia del momento, casi se puede divisar al final del arco al pequeño Leprechaun que monta guardia para evitar que le roben su olla llena de monedas de oro, porque.. conoces la leyenda ¿no?

Un abrazo
José

Preciosa imagen del campo con esa luz tan especial de los momentos previos al gran chaparrón, y con el plus del "Arco Iris" que le da ese punto de (color-mágico) que a mi siempre me ha parecido.

Un saludo amigo John y gracias.
