Look, everyone! Rainbows!

My wife came across this photoshop tutorial the other day:

And after reading it, I got thinking about just how much a nice rainbow can improve a photograph. After adding rainbows to all of my pictures, I decided to improve some classic rangefinder photos, to show you all the power of this amazing technique.

I can't believe I was here at the start of what will, no doubt, become photography's greatest trend!

Inspired!

Now all you have to do is sort the colors correctly

I heard that Capa staged that rainbow.

Yeah ... and looking for the 'pot of gold' can occasionally get you shot by the looks of it!

 

[jfretless]

genius! ...pure genius!

 

[Todd.Hanz]

Thanks! I had him wearing a body harness and hanging from a crane, all of which I had to clone out.

Next time I will kiss the ground you are standing on! ...Waita minute that's just a shrewed trick from magnum to prevent those photos to become publich property!

hmmm, better practice up a bit more. the expression isn't quite the same on each girl. not much into that "square look" either.

but hey! practice makes perfect!

In the midst of a very stressful day, this has really lightened things up for me.
