Here is a pic i took after some rainy time in my town. i went with my bike really fast onto a hill to get this pic but i suppose it could have ended up better.

This isnt a panorama or something it just a normal pic and i croped it to look like that.

After the shot i edited it a bit in iPhoto to get the colors like that.

That taken around sunset? The dark against the colors of the sunset give it just the right contrast. I like the colors in it.

Do you use anything besides iPhoto to edit your photos?

Gimp is a free program for both mac and pc which offers you a new way of altering photographs.

It does require that you have x11 from Apple, which is a free download.

Digital photography is the best way to be forced to use graphics programs!

Nice job.

yeah thanks fot all those tipps and i do use other programs that iphoto. i dont know if you use i photo but u cant do a lot except some cropping and colors. i also use Photoshop CS2 and occasionaly Fireworks. i use photoshop for photomanips and all. and then just fireworks for doing stuff with borders and all cause its hase a nice user interface.

I tried to photograph a man-made rainbow before. It was not my doing actually, just playing with some sprinklers in my back yard one day at about 4-5pm? So i set off the sprinklers and i see a rainbow nice and arched right outside my backyard!! It wasn't exactly a captivating sight but it isn't easy to ge the sun's position right and rain falling at the same time to get a rainbow so I was really excited! Unfortunately for me my camera was beyong repair due to a little accident....ah well...I'll have more luck next time!

lol really? thats intresting. ive never tired that myself but i think i will try it. hopefilly it will work and ill get a nice rainbow. i think ill have to watch out a bit so that i dont get ater on it or anything when i do it.
