You have certainly been very fortunate to come across rainbow and selected light combination, as seen here
Talking about being in the right place at the right time
Perfect.
A lovely photo that evokes a holiday feeling.
The composition, colors, and—above all—the clouds are great.
The horizon could just be straightened out a bit better.
What a perfect spot to capture! Now, including people in the shot is rather interesting. Sometimes we make an effort not to show humans, but in this instance it was rather fortunate. It gives more context, particularly with near by water vessel.
Absolutely dream like location. Superb.
Thanks a lot! This is a panorama shot, consisting of several portrait-oriented captures, which were put together in post via software. Of course it can't match the 'real deal', a large format camera, but it does give a hint at what a really big sensor might do with a scene. The specific lens used here, is an incredibly tiny Agfa prototype lens. It has no inscription of focal length or speed, but I estimate it somewhere around 50 mm and f/2.8. While unremarkable as hell with those specs, this particular lens was likely optimized for very close work and thus shows an enormous amount of field curvature.Depending on the subject and distance, this can create a significantly different look from what you would expect.
That's an idyllic scene. The ribs enhance the lure for the casual visitor, although one could say that they stand in the way of pristine paradise.
Photographically, the thing that stands out here as peculiar is the placement of your horizon.
Not at the conventional 1/3 up or 1/3 down marker in the frame, but right smack dab in the middle (or close, I did not get out my ruler to measure).
It makes sense, because the sky and the land have equal pull power in this image: the foreground is busy but in a good way, lots to see here.
And the sky provides fluffy balance with interesting cloud formations. The boat is the chain link that connects.
Kumsal,
Please feel absolutely free to share the result of your processing.
It is always interesting to me to see how other people approach optimalisation of an image.

Well it is so long since I have posted an image here that I am not sure I will get this right! (I do try to stop by weekly though!)
Perhaps too much but I gave it a shot with the software I have. I really ought to subscribe to Adobe but I am getting long in the tooth and learning new software can be a long frustrating process!
Great catch! The snarling tiger is hot on the heels of the unsuspecting woman fiddling with her phone, and the color palette is so well aligned you might have designed it yourself. Yes, the edits you suggest will probably improve it some for visual impact, but the core elements will be the same, and the strength will remain the composition.
Nice creative architectural image with lots of nooks and crannies to explore. The whites and blues dominate in the building and in the wonderful sky. But the two yellow doors low in the structure provided interesting color contrast. Well taken.
The simplistic, modern and graphic statuary seems an unlikely find on a mountaintop set against a beautiful hazy distant postcard-like scene. But there it is, you found it and captured it.
Such a simple subject, a tiny sprout against a backdrop of fallen and bare limbs. Your skills and unique array of lenses make the simplest subject an isolated wonder. Beautiful.
