[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
This is the second in a series of rainbow shots I captured atop a mountain in the Alaska Range day before yesterday. To say the least it was a dramatic, sublime view. The brightest rainbow I have ever encountered spread over a distant valley dappled with sunlight. Quite a place. If you saw the other image, let me know how you think the two compare.

Hi David,
You have described it very well: dramatic and sublime view! The pov so high make the rainbow even more beautiful. Great composition, color and landscape.
I prefer this one because of the position of the rainbow in the sky and the earth can be seem clearly. Also, the sky is partially cloudy, what is necessary for the phenomenon and very lovely too.
