Description Fullview Please!

The day this rainbow appeared, I'd spent 8 hours working at my karate dojo, doing manual labor as we moved to the new facility. It was hard, letting go of my second home, and it rained all afternoon.
On the drive home, this rainbow stretched out across the countryside.

I think it's a sign.

====================

I remember the time of my life
In a surface like I saw the dream in the sky
Now you know all the things we can't hide
I could tell you 'bout all my dreams right from the start

I want to be your star
Your fantasy
I want to reach the sun
And it's a dream
It's a dream

I couldn't wait to open up the full view of this photo! The way the rainbow disappears into the mist is just magical, but my favorite part of the photo is the way the sun brightly illuminates areas of the landscape while the dark storm clouds shade others. The exposure and contract cold not be more perfect, as details in the trees and field show nicely, as well as the texture of the sheets of rain. The color saturation is just right, including the rich colors of the rainbow. I wish the blurred trees at the bottom of the photo could be eliminated somehow, but cropping them out would disrupt the composition too much, and they don't really take away from any of the other elements.

Excellent job recognizing and photographing this scene, and presenting it to us so well!

Thank you so much for this wonderful critique! It means so much to me!
I'm glad you enjoy this photo, and I absolutely agree on wanting to take those front blurry trees out. To be completely honest, I took this out of a moving car, so I was pretty satisfied to get what I got.

Thank you again so much!
