  • Support One of the best on the article. Clear and not thin and hard to see. Well done, but where is the pot of gold? ;) --Ali K 05:12, 30 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]
  • Weak support pretty picture but I wish you could have somehow captured the entire rainbow. --Every1blowz 06:17, 30 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]
    • Well, it wasn't me that took it. :) That being said, trying to get whole rainbow can be impressive (, but it often looks, per Ali K, very thin and hard to see. Zafiroblue05 06:32, 30 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Its not trivial to photograph a whole rainbow. You typically need a fisheye lens, or a composite panorarma as explained in the article. --
You need a strong wide-angle lens.It can be a fisheye, but since the needed angle of 84° is far from 180°, it doesn't have to. --Ikar.us 06:32, 23 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]

  • Support. You seldom see the spectrum colors this clearly in a photo. I assume it's unretouched... --Janke | Talk 07:32, 30 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]
  • Support.It sorta looks too good to be true.--ragesoss 20:36, 30 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]
  • Support rainbows are hard to photograph, and photographing the entire rainbow is nigh on impossible in my experience! Nice vivid colours. chowells 01:20, 31 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]
