Beautiful as is but would prefer to see the main rainbow more off-centre and more space to the right of the secondary rainbow. As it is, it comes across as a grab shot, but a beautiful one!

I think it is great.

As you say, it is a creation and, as such, I like it! The colours and the picture remind me of a John Paul Caponigro picture of Zabriskie Point.

I agree. Can you move the rainbows to the left?

Hey guys they're all on layers in Photoshop...no problem to shift them.
Do we have a consensus on where to move them?    ???

Depends on whether nor not you want two rainbows. If you move them right you'll have one. If you move them left you'll have two in a different place.

And what planet is this, exactly? Unusual to have a rainbow with so much sand... not enough moisture in the air!  ;D

Still, fun and nicely done.

I would move the rainbows to the left and keep both.

Of course, you could put the rainbows upside down and really freak us all out.  ;D

You've probably upset the "purists" with this offering but it is very likeable. Worth hanging?

I'd hang this, stamper.  Provokes the imagination. Even though I know what it is, it makes me wonder what (where) it could be.

The second one works better for composition.  It is a good bit of fun and a pleasant result.  The thing that bothers me is the direction of light on the dunes makes the rainbow impossible... or is this what it looks like behind a rainbow?

I like the new version! The inconsistencies don't bother me at all. After all, dreams are often inconsistent.

Of course, you could also add a pot of gold at the foot of each rainbow.  :D
