Yankee Boy Report with image re-post and a second image

Some early columbine, paintbrush, etc. Still 7-14 days to peak I would say. Here's an image from this morning..check out the rainbow! C&C appreciated.

Thanks,

Excellent comp and the rainbow is a great addition to the shot. If only I could get some time off.

Nice shot Jack, and thank you for the update!

Jack, thanks for the update on YBB. The rainbow is a nice snag. Wonder if you reduced the brightness of the sky and adjusted contrast, saturation, and then blended that back in to enhance the rainbow and clouds.

Here is a re-post with the sky darkened and the rainbow saturated a little more..thoughts??

I love the reposted version, Jack! Even the 'current volume' shot is wonderful.
Sure look forward to seeing more from your trip. Really looking forward to getting out and about myself next weekend!
Thanks for the inspiration.

That second one is awesome! The repost on #1 is an improvement, but the contrast still looks a bit heavy to me.
